In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on SB1419 ( Relating 
to restrictions on the admission of certain persons promised 
or granted an athletic scholarship or similar financial assistance 
at a general academic teaching institution.) this office has 
detemined the following:
         
         Biennial Net Impact to General Revenue Funds by SB1419-Committee Report 2nd House, Substituted
         
No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
         

         
 
Similar annual fiscal implications The bill would prohibit institutions 
of higher education from admitting a student who had received 
an athletic scholarship or similar financial assistance unless 
the student met certain mean grade point average standards for 
all students at the institution.  There could be a loss in institutional 
funds for institutions that offer scholarship athletic programs. 
 However, there would be no fiscal impact to the State. 
          
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
