Bill > SB00159

This bill requires all public institutions of higher education in Connecticut to freeze tuition rates starting with the academic year beginning in 2025. The purpose of this legislation is to provide more predictability for students and families regarding the cost of higher education by preventing tuition increases during that academic year. By mandating a tuition freeze, the bill aims to make college more financially accessible and help students and their families better plan for educational expenses without unexpected annual price increases. The bill amends title 10a of the state's general statutes to implement this tuition freeze across all public higher education institutions in the state, which could include community colleges, state universities, and other public colleges.
