An Act relative to tuition waivers for children raised by a grandparent or other relative

This bill expands tuition and fee waivers in Massachusetts to cover children who are under a legal guardianship and are living with a grandparent or other relative, excluding parents. The program specifically targets residents who reach age 18 or enroll in a Massachusetts college while in this living arrangement, allowing them to receive financial assistance for their education. Financial responsibility for these waivers falls to the state government rather than the colleges, but only after all available federal funding sources have been used up.
