The funds are to be used for room, board, books, and supplies at New Hampshire public colleges and universities. Since 1981, the Legislature has also allowed qualified children of fallen veterans to receive free tuition through the University System of New Hampshire and Community College System of New Hampshire. Other than the aforementioned specified criteria, this scholarship doesn't otherwise have too many restrictions.
