U.S. Code as of:
01/19/04
Section 278a. Use of appropriated funds for education in sectarian schools prohibited; exceptions
Funds appropriated on and after March 30, 1968, to the Secretary
of the Interior for the education of Indian children shall not be
used for the education of such children in elementary and secondary
education programs in sectarian schools. This prohibition shall not
apply to the education of Indians in accredited institutions of
higher education and in other accredited schools offering
vocational and technical training, but no scholarship aid provided
for an Indian student shall require him to attend an institution or
school that is not of his own free choice, and such aid shall be,
to the extent consistent with sound administration, extended to the
student individually rather than to the institution or school.
