For the purposes of this section, the term “eligible institution” means an institution of higher education* which—
has an enrollment which includes a substantial percentage of students who are members of a minority group, or who are economically or educationally disadvantaged; or
is located in a community that is not within commuting distance of a major institution of higher education; and
demonstrates a commitment to meet the special educational needs of students who are members of a minority group or are economically or educationally disadvantaged.
