(a) Kansas education opportunity scholarships may be paid annually for two semesters or the equivalent thereof, and may be allocated equally between the semesters or the equivalent of semesters, or otherwise, as determined by the state board of regents. Kansas education opportunity scholarships shall be paid at a time or times to be determined by the state board of regents upon certification by an eligible institution that a Kansas education opportunity scholar is enrolled full time in an educational program. Payments of Kansas education opportunity scholarships shall be made upon vouchers approved by the administrative officer of the state board of regents designated by the state board and upon warrants of the director of accounts and reports.

The director of accounts and reports shall cause such warrant to be delivered to the eligible institution where such scholar or scholars are enrolled. Upon receipt of such warrant, the eligible institution shall credit immediately the account of each Kansas education opportunity scholar enrolled at that institution by an amount specified by the board of regents for each such scholar.
