| Long Title: | AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 14 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR HIGHER EDUCATION FOR THOSE SERVING IN THE DELAWARE NATIONAL GUARD. |
| Synopsis: | The Act makes several changes to the Delaware National Guard Educational Benefits program. Section 1 requires State-supported institutions to charge members the in-state rate for tuition and fees regardless of the members’ state of residence. Sections 2 and 3 make changes to allow members to pursue master’s degree programs. Section 4 allows members to receive a grade less than a 2.0 on an individual course, but requires members to maintain a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 or higher in order to receive reimbursement. Finally, Section 5 provides that, if funding is not appropriated to fully support the program, the reimbursement for master’s degree programs will be reduced before any reductions to members applying for associate’s or bachelor’s degree programs.
