HB 2484 Kansas House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Eliminating the Kansas residency requirement after completing a Kansas promise scholarship program, clarifying the work requirements upon completion of such program and repealing the sunset on the program.

HB 2484 removes the requirement for Kansas Promise Scholarship recipients to live in Kansas after completing their education. It clarifies that students must work in Kansas for two years post-graduation (or continue studying in-state) but eliminates the prior residency mandate. The bill also permanently extends the program by repealing its sunset date, making the scholarship available indefinitely. This directly affects students who received or will receive the Kansas Promise Scholarship, changing their post-graduation obligations.
