Postsec. | From bill analysis: The requirements of the Early High School Graduation Scholarship Program (scholarship program) as stated prior to 2003 provided that a student who completed high school in not more than 36 consecutive months was eligible for a scholarship in state tuition credits. But in 2003, the 78th Legislature added a requirement establishing that students who graduate early must graduate with the recommended or advanced high school curriculum in order to receive a scholarship under this scholarship program. The Act passed by the 78th Legislature failed to address the issue of students currently enrolled in the scholarship program, thereby leaving many students without the scholarship as promised. H.B. 2109 re-establishes the eligibility of students admitted under the previous scholarship program who lost eligibility when the legislature changed the requirements of the Early High School Graduation Scholarship Program. http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/cgi-bin/tlo/textframe.cmd?LEG=79&SESS=R&CHAMBER=H&BILLTYPE=B&BILLSUFFIX=02109&VERSION=5&TYPE=B

| TX | Signed into law 06/2005 | Postsec. | From bill analysis: S.B. 1227 makes an array of amendments to the Education Code to promote access to institutions of higher education, allow for financial aid administrative savings, and make clarifying changes. Amendments to Section 56.202 create the Early High School Graduation Scholarship program to increase efficiency in the Foundation School Program and to provide assistance for tuition or tuition and mandatory fees. Amendments to Section 56.203, Education Code do the following:
(a) Provide that to be eligible for an award through the Early High School Graduation Scholarship program, a person must have graduated from high school and meet certain requirements; have attended high school exclusively in one or more public high schools in the state; and be a Texas resident as defined by coordinating board rule.
(b) Provide that the eligibility for the Early High School Graduation Scholarship program for a person depends on the sixth anniversary of the date that the person first becomes eligible to participate in the program, unless the person is provided additional time to participate in the program.
(c) Provide that the coordinating board must adopt rules to provide a person who is otherwise eligible to participate in the Early High School Graduation Scholarship program additional time to use a state credit for tuition and mandatory fees under the program. Provides that the rules must require a person seeking an extension to show hardship or other good cause that prevents the person from enrolling in or continuing enrollment in an eligible institution during the period provided.
(d) Provides that a person who does not satisfy the curriculum requirements for the recommended or advanced high school program as required to establish eligibility is considered to have satisfied those requirements if the high school from which the person graduated indicates on the person's transcript that the person was unable to complete the appropriate curriculum within the time prescribed by that subsection solely because of a reason beyond the person's control, such as lack of enrollment capacity or a shortage of qualified teachers.
The heading to Section 56.204, Education Code, is amended to modify the heading to read "ENTITLEMENT." An eligible person under the
Early High School Graduation Scholarship program is entitled to a state credit to apply toward tuition or tuition and mandatory fees, as applicable, at a public or private institution of higher education in Texas.

| VA | Signed into law 03/2005 | Postsec. | Amends, reorganizes, and moves the statute creating the Brown v. Board of Education Scholarship Program and Fund to Title 30. Currently, a part of the law is codified in Title 23. The bill also (i) includes several technical amendments to provide clarity and consistency; (ii) reinstates language inadvertently omitted; (iii) prohibits the use of scholarship funds for theological education; (iv) authorizes the Awards Committee to seek, receive, and expend nonstate funds; and (v) resolves the issue of the separation of powers by requiring the State Council of Higher Education to advise and provide technical assistance to the Awards Committee in a manner consistent with its statutory responsibilities for higher education in the Commonwealth. Under the current law, the Scholarship Program and the Awards Committee are created within the legislative branch; however, administration of the Program is shared between the legislative and executive branch agencies. The bill also waives the Standards of Learning requirements and assessments for persons awarded a scholarship under the Program and who are enrolled in a preparation program for the General Education Development (GED) certificate or an adult basic education program for the high school diploma. Also, for the purpose of verifying the domicile of applicants, the Awards Committee is authorized to establish a list of acceptable documents consistent with those required to obtain a Virginia driver's license or identification card, and to access vital records. In addition, the Awards Committee must establish a protocol to facilitate the dual enrollment of eligible students in adult basic education programs and degree programs, and the conventional enrollment of such students in public and private two-year institutions of higher education. Further, the Awards Committee is charged to develop and implement a system that provides transition programs and services to prepare eligible students for academic success in GED preparation and adult basic education programs, and college.
The second enactment clause allows students who are enrolled in an approved education program when the Program expires to complete their education through the renewal of the scholarship, if they demonstrate satisfactory academic achievement. The third enactment clause delegates to the State Council of Higher Education the responsibility to review and approve applications for renewal of scholarship awards of students who were enrolled in approved education programs when the Program expired. The fourth enactment clause repeals Chapter 4.4:5 of Title 23, consisting of §§ 23-38.53:21 through 23-38.53:24, and Chapter 34 of Title 30, consisting of §§ 30-226 through 30-231. This bill has an emergency clause. This bill is a recommendation of the Brown v. Board of Education Scholarship Awards Committee. http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?051+ful+HB2588ER
