Bill Caption

Relating to providing information to undergraduate students regarding a fixed tuition rate provided by general academic teaching institutions.

Fiscal Notes

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

Bill Analysis

HB 4383 would require any general academic teaching institution that offers a fixed tuition rate program to provide information explaining the effect of the program on the calculation of a student’s cost per credit hour, clearly describing the amount of tuition a student would pay for varying course loads covered by the program.

Vote Recommendation Notes

Texas Action supports HB 4383 on the principle of individual liberty. Allowing students to access this information greatly aids their decision making process in choosing courses to take.
