Arizona HB2616 establishes a scholarship fund for students who completed national service programs.

Arizona HB2616 creates the public service scholarship fund to award scholarships to students who completed a term of service in a national service program. The scholarships match the recipients' federal postservice education awards and can only be used for eligible educational institutions in Arizona. Recipients must be in good academic standing and use the scholarship within three years of completing their service. Unused funds revert to the scholarship fund after three years. The Arizona Board of Regents administers the fund, which is exempt from lapsing appropriations.
