The bill amends the Arkansas Academic Challenge Scholarship Program to modify the conditions under which nontraditional student recipients can retain or regain their scholarships. Specifically, it allows nontraditional students who lose their scholarship eligibility to apply for reinstatement, similar to traditional students who can reapply as first-time nontraditional students.

The legal language changes include the insertion of provisions that clarify eligibility for reinstatement, allowing nontraditional students to apply for their scholarship reinstatement rather than being ineligible as previously stated. This change aims to provide more opportunities for nontraditional students to continue their education with financial support.
