72-9705.Payment of honors scholarships; certification of enrollment; discontinued attendance of student. (a) Payment to a Kansas honor student of a Kansas honors scholarship shall be made at a time specified by the board of regents upon certification by an institution of postsecondary education that the Kansas honor student is enrolled in an honors or gifted program at the institution.  Payments of Kansas honors scholarships shall be made upon vouchers approved by an administrative officer designated by the board of regents and upon warrants of the director of accounts and reports. Payments of Kansas honors scholarships may be made by the issuance of a single warrant to each institution of postsecondary education at which a Kansas honor student is enrolled for the total amount of Kansas honors scholarships for all Kansas honor students enrolled at that institution. The director of accounts and reports shall cause such warrant to be delivered to the institution of postsecondary education at which the Kansas honor student or students are enrolled. Upon receipt of such warrant, the institution of postsecondary education shall credit immediately the account of each Kansas honor student enrolled at that institution by an amount specified by the board of regents for each such student.

(b) If a Kansas honor student discontinues attendance before the end of an honors or gifted program, after the institution of postsecondary education has received payment under this section, the institution shall pay to the state the entire amount which the Kansas honor student would otherwise qualify to have refunded not to exceed the amount of the payment made under the Kansas honors scholarship.

(c) All amounts paid to the state by an institution of postsecondary education under subsection (b) shall be remitted to the state treasurer in accordance with the provisions of K.S.A. 75-4215, and amendments thereto. Upon receipt of each such remittance, the state treasurer shall deposit the entire amount in the state treasury to the credit of the state scholarship discontinued attendance fund.
