SB 1187 Tuition, in-state; waiver thereof for children and spouses of certain public safety personnel.

Introduced by: Harry B. Blevins | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles | history

SUMMARY AS PASSED:

Waiver of tuition for children and spouses of certain public safety personnel. Includes the spouses and children of members of the Virginia National Guard or members of the Virginia State Defense Force killed in the line of duty among the beneficiaries entitled to free undergraduate tuition and the payment of required fees at any public institution of higher education in Virginia.

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Waiver of tuition for children and spouses of certain public safety personnel. Amends the provisions of the Code allowing the spouse and children of certain deceased public safety personnel to attend a Virginia state-supported institution of higher education free of tuition and fees. If the spouse or children are entitled to benefits under the Line of Duty Act, then they are also entitled to the tuition waiver. The tuition waiver program is currently drawn more narrowly than the Line of Duty Act.
