HB 1693 -- Missouri Education Promise Program

Sponsor:  Zweifel

This bill establishes the Missouri Education Promise Program,
which extends an additional level of book and tuition
reimbursement to full-time students who have used the A+ Schools
Program to complete the 42-hour general education core at a
community college.  These students may use the Missouri Education
Promise Program at any public four-year institution in Missouri
for up to 60 semester hours over three academic years.
Eligibility requirements include at least a 3.0 grade point
average during the student's A+ Schools Program and throughout
the Missouri Education Promise Program and an agreement to
complete 50 hours of community service by mid term in which the
student has applied for graduation.  Subject to appropriations,
the reimbursement will cover tuition, fees, and up to 50% of book
costs, after all federal funds for which the student has
qualified are applied.
