HB 846 Tuition Assistance Grants.
Introduced by: George Broman, Jr. | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Tuition Assistance Grants. Deletes references to any loans previously made under the Tuition Assistance Grant Act (TAG), including repayment provisions and other requirements applying to loans made before July 1, 1980, and provides that pharmacy students may receive TAG grants for no more than four academic years. In addition, the measure provides that institutions acting as agents for students receiving TAG grants are to promptly credit funds disbursed to TAG students upon verification of the student's eligibility by the institution. Under current law, eligibility notification is provided by the State Council of Higher Education.
The TAG initiative provides "a program of tuition assistance in the form of grants" to Virginia residents attending "private, accredited and nonprofit institutions of collegiate education in the Commonwealth whose primary purpose is to provide collegiate, graduate, or professional education and not to provide religious training or theological education."
