Grant disbursement shall be made to the eligible enrolled student in equal amounts per term upon institutional verification of the student's enrollment in an eligible program, proof of financial need and satisfactory academic progress. The award amount shall not exceed $2,500 per academic year. The value of the grant shall be the same regardless of the institution selected. Students may be awarded grants for up to eight quarters (or equivalent) of study. Renewability will not be forfeited if a student stops out for a single term during the academic year. However, students who fail to attend for more than one regular academic term during the period of their award will be required to reapply for the grant. If they are reawarded, previous terms of enrollment during which they received the grant will count toward their total eligibility.
The educational opportunity grant, when combined with the state share of other state-appropriated student financial aid programs, shall not exceed an amount equal to the total maximum student expense budget at the public research institutions plus the current average state appropriation per student for operating expense in the public institutions.
