(1) The amounts appropriated in section 236 for the state tuition grant program must be distributed pursuant to 1966 PA 313, MCL 390.991 to 390.997a.

  (2) Tuition grant awards must be made to all eligible Michigan residents enrolled in undergraduate degree programs who are qualified and who apply by March 1 of each year for the next academic year.

  (3) Pursuant to section 5 of 1966 PA 313, MCL 390.995, and subject to subsections (6) and (7), the department of treasury shall determine an actual tuition grant award per student, which must be $3,000.00, that ensures that the aggregate payments for the tuition grant program do not exceed the appropriation contained in section 236 for the state tuition grant program. If the department determines that insufficient funds are available to establish an award amount equal to $3,000.00, the department shall immediately report to the house and senate appropriations subcommittees on higher education, the house and senate fiscal agencies, and the state budget director regarding the estimated amount of additional funds necessary to establish a $3,000.00 award amount. If the department determines that sufficient funds are available to establish an award amount equal to $3,000.00, the department shall immediately report to the house and senate appropriations subcommittees on higher education, the house and senate fiscal agencies, and the state budget director regarding the award amount established and the projected amount of any projected year-end appropriation balance based on that award amount. By February 18 of each fiscal year, the department shall analyze the status of award commitments, shall make any necessary adjustments, and shall confirm that those award commitments will not exceed the appropriation contained in section 236 for the tuition grant program.

  (5) If the department of treasury increases the award per eligible student from that provided in the previous fiscal year, it must not have the effect of reducing the number of eligible students receiving awards in relation to the total number of eligible applicants.
