Amendment:

5.7.34.8 NMAC, STUDENT ELIGIBILITY AND SELECTION OF AWARD RECIPIENTS

Purpose:

The proposed amendment aligns the eligibility criteria in the rule to be consistent with the Statute. The Statute indicates an eligible student “is enrolled or enrolling, whereas 5.7.34 NMAC currently provides eligibility to an enrolled student and does not contain the language “or enrolling”. This amendment will ensure extension of eligibility to students completing the prerequisites to enter the teacher preparation program.

Summary of proposed changes:

The amendment to Section 5.7.34.8 NMAC adds the language “or enrolling” to the student eligibility requirements.
