A student is eligible for employment in the state work-study program if he is enrolled at least a one-half-time student, is in compliance with the institution's satisfactory academic progress requirements, is a resident of New Mexico and has legally entered the United States. The commission on higher education shall establish criteria to apply in determining whether the enrollment and residency requirements are met by the applicant.

History: Laws 1982, ch. 88, § 7; 1991, ch. 262, § 2.

The 1991 amendment, effective June 14, 1991, rewrote the first sentence which read "A student is eligible for employment in the state work-study program if he is enrolled as a full-time student, maintains a grade point average of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale during an academic term and is a resident of New Mexico and a citizen of the United States" and substituted "commission on higher education" for "board" in the second sentence.
