SB 5286: Educational grant account

Changing provisions relating to the state educational grant account.

Summary

  • The state educational grant account is changed to a trust fund, allowing funds to be committed to a student years in advance of his or her actual entrance into college. The fund is used not only to support existing outreach efforts such as Upward Bound and other federal TRIO programs, but also locally-based community outreach and early awareness programs.
