Act 101 Program Eligibility

[27 Pa.B. 323]

   In accordance with 22 Pa. Code § 44.4 (relating to eligible students), notice is hereby given that for the 1997-98 academic year the maximum adjusted annual family income to be used for including students in an Act 101 program is $18,750. This figure was determined by increasing the maximum adjusted annual family income of $18,600 for the 1996-97 academic year by 25% of the increase in the consumer price index between July 1995 and July 1996 (3.0%), rounded to the nearest $50.

   Notwithstanding the above information, please be advised that a process is currently underway to restructure the definition of economically disadvantaged. When a new income level is approved, it will be published in a subsequent Pennsylvania Bulletin issue.

   Questions can be directed to Kathleen R. Kennedy, Act 101 State Coordinator, at [phone].
