Event Details

Purpose: To provide institutions with greater flexibility in administering their state financial aid funds, the THECB proposes the elimination of reallocations and institution of biennial, rather than annual, allocations. To do so would require a modification to the TEXAS Grant allocation methodology. Texas Education Code, Section 61.0331, directs the THECB to employ the negotiated rulemaking process described in Chapter 2008 of the Texas Government Code when adopting rules relating to financial aid allocation methodologies.

Status: Rules adopted at the July 26, 2018 Board Meeting; committee disbanded.
