(b) Subject to the provisions of appropriation acts and in accordance with policies adopted by the state board of regents, the chancellor or president of each state educational institution, in the discretion of the chancellor or president, may grant a tuition and fee waiver to one or more graduate students of the state educational institution who is awarded a national fellowship and who is not determined to be a Kansas resident under K.S.A. 76-719, and amendments thereto, and any policies adopted thereunder.
