Section 2107
            (c) of title 10, United States Code, is amended by 
inserting after paragraph

    (3) the following new paragraph:
 ``

    (4)
        (A) The Secretary of Defense shall issue regulations pursuant 
to which an individual who is required to participate in a unit of the 
Senior Reserve Officers' Training Corps at an educational institution 
while a decision on the eligibility of that individual for financial 
assistance under paragraph

    (2) is pending, shall receive 
reimbursement for reasonable expenses incurred to attend such 
institution during the period of such participation (including costs 
for tuition, fees, laboratory expenses, and room and board, as

such financial assistance solely for medical reasons.
 ``
        (B) As part of such regulations, the Secretary shall establish a 
process through which an individual described in subparagraph
        (A) may 
submit a claim for reimbursement and, if qualified, receive such 
reimbursement not later than 90 days after the date on which the claim 
is submitted.''.
