Removes the requirement that an applicant for the New York opportunity promise scholarship has not already obtained any postsecondary degree.

The bill amends the New York education law to remove the requirement that an applicant for the New York opportunity promise scholarship must not have already obtained any postsecondary degree. This change allows individuals who have already earned a postsecondary degree to be eligible for the scholarship if they meet other criteria, such as being enrolled in an eligible associate degree program in a high-demand field.
