This law adjusts the VA Scholarship Program for part-time students. Their stipend shrinks based on how few credit hours they carry, they get no stipend for months they aren't attending, and their scholarship period can be stretched to six years.

For a participant who is a part-time student: (1) The most stipend they can get shrinks in proportion to how many fewer credit hours they carry compared to a full-time student in the same course of training. (2) They get no stipend for any month they are not actually attending their course of training. (3) The Secretary may stretch the time a scholarship can be awarded to as much as six school years, if the Secretary decides that extension serves the country's best interest.

a stipend may not be paid for any month during which the participant is not actually attending the course of training in which the participant is enrolled; and
