Bill > HR2465

This bill amends the Higher Education Act of 1965 to establish a program that enables college-bound residents of the Northern Mariana Islands and American Samoa to have greater choices among institutions of higher education. The bill provides grants to the Governors of these territories to award to eligible institutions that enroll eligible students, covering the difference between in-state and out-of-state tuition and fees. Eligible students must have graduated from a public institution in the Northern Mariana Islands or American Samoa and be enrolled at least half-time in a baccalaureate or other recognized program at an eligible four-year public institution located in the United States, its territories, or Guam. The bill authorizes $5 million per year for this program over 6 fiscal years.
