Editor's Note. - Former G.S. 116-238.1 pertained to full tuition grant for graduates who attend a State university. Session Laws 2017-57, s. 10.26(a)-(d), provides: "(a) Of the funds appropriated by this act to the Board of Governors for the 2017-2018 fiscal year, the sum of one million five hundred thousand dollars ($ 1,500,000) shall be allocated to the State Education Assistance Authority to be held in reserve to provide tuition grants for one academic year to each State resident who graduates from the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics at the end of the 2017-2018 academic year and who enrolls as a full-time student in a constituent institution of The University of North Carolina for the 2018-2019 academic year. The amount of the grant awarded to each student shall cover the tuition cost at the constituent institution in which the student is enrolled. "(b) The tuition grants provided for in this section shall be administered by the State Education Assistance Authority pursuant to rules adopted by the State Education Assistance Authority not inconsistent with this section. The State Education Assistance Authority shall not approve any grant until it receives proper certification from the appropriate constituent institution that the student applying for the grant is an eligible student. Upon receipt of the certification, the State Education Assistance Authority shall remit at the times it prescribes the grant to the constituent institution on behalf, and to the credit, of the student. "(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, no tuition grant awarded to a student under this section shall exceed the cost of attendance at the constituent institution at which the student is enrolled. If a student, who is eligible for a tuition grant under this subsection, also receives a scholarship or other grant covering the cost of attendance at the constituent institution for which the tuition grant is awarded, then the amount of the tuition grant shall be reduced by an appropriate amount determined by the State Education Assistance Authority. The State Education Assistance Authority shall reduce the amount of the tuition grant so that the sum of all grants and scholarship aid covering the cost of attendance received by the student, including the tuition grant under this section, shall not exceed the cost of attendance for the constituent institution at which the student is enrolled. The cost of attendance, as used in this subsection, shall be determined by the State Education Assistance Authority for each constituent institution.
