Bill > HB06717

This bill proposes to waive tuition and other fees for veterans enrolled in public higher education institutions in Connecticut, covering all academic terms including summer sessions and educational extension program courses. By amending title 10a of the general statutes, the legislation would ensure that veterans do not have to pay any tuition or associated fees when attending public colleges or universities in the state. This provision would apply to all academic terms, which means veterans would receive a complete tuition waiver for their entire educational experience at public higher education institutions. The bill aims to provide financial support and educational opportunities for veterans by removing the financial barrier of tuition costs, potentially making higher education more accessible to those who have served in the military.
