Since these fees are institutional funds and are not a part of the
appropriations process, there would be no fiscal implication to the
State.  It is assumed that the number of waivers granted would not have
a significant impact on institutions of higher education.
  
Local Government Impact
  
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
