(c) All amounts paid to the state by a designated educational institution under subsection (b) shall be deposited in the state treasury and credited to the vocational education scholarship discontinued attendance fund which is hereby established.  All expenditures from the vocational education scholarship discontinued attendance fund shall be for vocational education scholarships.
