Expanding the amount of promise scholarship funds awarded to persons majoring in science, technology, engineering and mathematics

Summary

The bill changes the PROMISE scholarship rules so that any student majoring in a science, technology, engineering, or mathematics field at a state college receives an award that pays for the full cost of tuition, room, and board. It keeps the existing eligibility requirements—application deadlines, GPA standards, citizenship status, and other criteria—but adds this higher benefit for STEM majors. The change is intended to boost in‑state enrollment in high‑need STEM programs.
