Bill Summary
This bill revises certain high school student financial aid application requirements. Under current law, beginning with the 2023-2024 grade 11 class, and for two years after, a board of education is to require a student, and the student's parent or guardian, as applicable, to complete and submit a financial aid application as a prerequisite to the student receiving a high school diploma unless a waiver is submitted. This bill makes permanent the requirement that students complete a financial aid application after the 2023-2024 school year.
