a. Direct the institutions of higher education governed by the board to waive all tuition and mandatory fees for a veteran, as defined in section 35.1, who has a permanent service-connected disability rating of one hundred percent as certified by the United States department of veterans affairs and who applies to and is admitted for enrollment at the institution.
b. A veteran shall only be eligible for a waiver under this subsection if the veteran is not eligible for or has exhausted any other available federal or state sources of financial assistance for such tuition and fees, including but not limited to the Pell grant program and education benefits from the United States department of veterans affairs.
