Bill overview
This bill changes how veterans can receive in-state tuition using their Department of Veterans Affairs education benefits. Currently, there’s a deadline based on when a veteran left active duty that limits who can receive in-state tuition, regardless of where they live. This legislation removes that deadline, allowing more veterans to qualify for in-state tuition at public colleges and universities. It also requires the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide clear information about tuition requirements to veterans.
