Bill > A00705

This bill requires all colleges, universities, professional, proprietary, and graduate schools in New York to provide written notice to their students about the institution's tuition liability policy at least once per year. The notice must be delivered electronically and presented in clear, easy-to-understand language. Specifically, the written communication must outline the institution's policies regarding tuition liability, including any potential exceptions to standard tuition charges and the process students can follow to request an exception to these charges. The bill aims to increase transparency by ensuring students are informed about potential financial obligations before and during their enrollment. The new requirement will go into effect 90 days after the bill becomes law, giving educational institutions time to develop and implement the required notification process.
