SUMMARY:

Waivers of tuition for certain students. Reduces from ten to five the number of years of Virginia residency required of a veteran who was killed, disabled, a prisoner of war, or missing in action in armed conflict, or of the surviving spouse of such veteran, for the child of such veteran to be eligible for free tuition and fees at a state institution of higher education. In addition, the residency requirements addressing surviving spouses are altered to allow such spouse to have been a Virginia resident for either five years before marriage or for five years prior to the child's application for college admission; current law requires that both of these conditions be met.
