State-supported institutions of higher education, trade schools, and vocational schools must classify veterans as in-state, in-county, in-district, local, or resident students regardless of actual residence for all tuition and fee purposes, including distance learning programs.

Eligible veterans must have been discharged or released from at least 90 days of active duty in the military, naval, or air service within 3 years before enrollment.

Dependents of eligible veterans qualify for the same in-state tuition classification.

Active duty members of the armed forces stationed in Arkansas under military orders and their unemancipated dependents are entitled to in-state classification for fee purposes.

Spouses of armed forces members are eligible for in-state tuition classification.
