AI Summary
This bill amends the Public Higher Education Act to guarantee in-state tuition rates for students with parents who are active military members. Specifically, if a student is residing with a parent who is an active military member at the time the student enrolls in a public institution of higher education in the state, that student will be eligible for in-state tuition for the entire duration of their enrollment. This protection applies even if the parent is later reassigned to military service outside of the state, ensuring that military families do not face unexpected tuition increases due to potential relocation. The bill aims to provide financial stability and educational support for students from military families by maintaining their in-state tuition status regardless of future military reassignments.
