Notwithstanding KRS 164.020(8), the governing board of a Kentucky public
university may adopt a tuition policy whereby any veteran of the Armed Forces of
the United States or National Guard who is eligible for Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits or
any member of a Reserve component who enrolls as a student in the university as a
non-Kentucky resident is charged no more than the maximum tuition
reimbursement provided under the Post-9/11 GI Bill to public universities for
eligible Kentucky residents.
Notwithstanding KRS 164.020(8), beginning with the 2017-2018 academic year, an
active member of the Kentucky National Guard who enrolls as a student in a
Kentucky public university as a non-Kentucky resident shall be considered a
Kentucky resident for tuition purposes.
A member of the United States Armed Forces, or a spouse or dependent of a
member, who is determined to be a Kentucky resident at the time of acceptance for
admission by a public postsecondary institution under the guidelines established by
the council shall not lose Kentucky residency status if the member is transferred on
military orders prior to the member, spouse, or dependent enrolling in the institution
for the academic term for which the member, spouse, or dependent was accepted or
while the student is enrolled. The member, spouse, or dependent shall not lose
Kentucky residency if he or she remains continuously enrolled in the institution at
the same degree level.
