Senate Bill 1118 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 49, concerning higher education. The bill expands the definition of eligible institutions by adding "law schools" and "veterinary schools" to the existing list that includes "medical schools." Additionally, it modifies the age requirement for certain provisions by changing the age from "sixty-five (65) years of age" to "sixty-two (62) years of age."

The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, and will apply to the academic year 2025-2026 and subsequent years. These changes aim to broaden access to educational benefits and adjust age-related criteria within the state's higher education framework.
