§ 3225. Benefit
(b) Promissory note.--Prior to entry into the program, the eligible member shall sign a promissory note obligating the eligible member to repay the full amount of the benefit if the eligible member fails to satisfactorily fulfill the service obligation. The promissory note shall become payable upon noncompletion of the service obligation under section 3227(a) (relating to recoupment of benefit payments).
(2) Prior to making a benefit payment under this subchapter, the approved institution of higher learning shall first consider any Federal tuition assistance received by the eligible member and shall award a benefit under this subchapter if the eligible member requires additional financial aid to cover the costs of attendance for an approved degree-producing program.
(e) Adjustments.--If the agency and the Adjutant General determine that the amount appropriated for the program in any year will be insufficient to provide benefits in the amounts specified in this section to each eligible member, the agency and the department may reduce the maximum amount of the benefits proportionately or set a limit on the number of participants to ensure that sums expended do not exceed appropriations.
