The bill amends the eligibility requirements for the Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program, specifically addressing students who earn a high school diploma from a non-Florida school. It revises the criteria to allow students who have earned their diploma while living with a parent or guardian who is either currently on military or public service assignment away from Florida or has retired from such service within the 12 months prior to the student's graduation.

Additionally, the bill maintains the existing eligibility criteria for students completing home education programs or earning diplomas from Florida private schools. The changes are set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
