http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A8725-2001Jul30.html House Votes to Expand D.C. Tuition Break Almost All High School Graduates Would Be Eligible for In-State Rates Spencer S. Hsu and Amy Argetsinger, Washington Post Staff Writers, Tuesday, July 31, 2001; Page B01 The House of Representatives voted yesterday to expand a college aid program to allow virtually all high school graduates living in the District to attend public colleges across the country at in-state tuition rates. The bill, which now goes to the Senate, would broaden a benefit that is becoming an important part of the city's drive to lure back residents from the suburbs. The year-old program, which originally limited aid to students who had graduated since 1998, will now be open to most District adults seeking an undergraduate degree on at least a half-time schedule.... (ed. note: Does this have implications for online baccalaureate degree programs?)
