Description

Student Financial Security Program. Creates the Student Financial Security Program to provide supplemental funding for state-funded, need-based financial aid at two- and four-year public institutions of higher education in the Commonwealth. The funding is designed to ensure that resources for student financial aid programs based in whole or in part on need are available to offset tuition increases at the various public institutions. A second enactment clause requires that this act will not become effective unless an appropriation of general funds is included in the general appropriation act, passed by the 2006 Session of the General Assembly, and becomes law.
