Any accredited postsecondary institution that is not controlled by the state and which participates in the national guard member grant program shall waive twenty-five percent of the tuition that otherwise would be charged to each enrolled, qualifying member of the national guard. The adjutant general shall adopt rules for distributing grants under this section and establishing qualification requirements for grant recipients
