Summary
The bill changes the scholarship’s rules so applicants must not have earned any post‑secondary degree in the past 20 years, but it does not block students already enrolled in an eligible associate‑degree program. It applies to anyone applying for the Opportunity Promise scholarship and aims to make the eligibility criteria clearer. The amendment takes effect right away.
