RISE法案 provides a way to apply for ISAC gift assistance programs – including MAP, the Minority Teachers of Illinois (MTI) Scholarship Program, the Illinois Special Education Teacher Tuition Waiver (SETTW) 项目 and others – to those who meet the RISE Act criteria and each program’s eligibility requirements. RISE法案 does not exempt applicants from meeting existing program eligibility criteria.
