For the purposes of determining the eligibility of a student for a tuition assistance grant, domicile shall be determined by the enrolling institution, as provided in § 23-7.4, and the State Council of Higher Education’s guidelines for domiciliary status determinations. In addition, in order to ensure consistency and fairness, the State Council of Higher Education shall require all participating institutions to file student specific data, shall monitor the domiciliary status decisions of these institutions, and shall make final decisions on any disputes between the institutions and the grant recipients. The Council shall report to the Governor and the General Assembly, as the Council deems necessary, on issues related to domiciliary status determinations for students receiving tuition assistance grants.
