ASSUMPTION
Officials from the Coordinating Board For Higher Education (CBHE) assume there is no fiscal impact to the CBHE as this program is administered by the Missouri National Guard. Additionally, CBHE officials state this program is subject to appropriation, thus expanding the number of eligible institutions and requiring primacy of federal funds would not necessarily change the cost of the program.
Officials from the Missouri National Guard assume the proposal would result in no fiscal impact to the agency. They currently do not receive a significant amount of federal funding.

DESCRIPTION
The proposal would allow National Guard educational assistance grants to be awarded to any member attending an approved public or private institution as defined in section 173.778. The grants would be used only after all available federal Department of Defense educational funds have been expended.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
