AI Summary
This bill amends the Occupations Code to expand the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy's scholarship program for accounting students. The key changes include: removing the requirement that the scholarships be limited to "fifth-year" accounting students, allowing the scholarships to be used for tuition, fees, books, supplies, and living expenses for accounting study at any institution of higher education, and adding scholastic ability and performance in upper-level accounting coursework as a factor to be considered in determining scholarship recipients. The bill also requires the Board to adopt implementing rules by October 1, 2023.
