    Tbf this is how it works in my state (California) and I’d assume many others with a similar program. They don’t want people that already have a degree (and thus potential for a higher paying job) coming in and inflating the program’s cost.

      This is also how it works in Connecticut. While it may not be perfect, I don’t think it’s entirely unfair. It has the effect of a being a progressive social policy this way in that it is available for those who don’t already have it. Someday it like it to be carte blanche to everyone, but states doing this way is a solid start.
