Bill > SF2703

This bill requires the Board of Trustees of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities (MnSCU) to create an enrollment fraud working group focused on developing strategies to prevent fraudulent enrollment in online courses. The working group's specific goal is to address instances where individuals might improperly access financial aid, campus information technology systems, and student support services through deceptive enrollment practices. The group will include representatives from various student and faculty associations, such as the Minnesota State University Student Association, Minnesota State College Student Association, Minnesota State College Faculty, Inter Faculty Organization, Minnesota Association of Professional Employees, and Minnesota State University Association of Administrative and Service Faculty. The board is mandated to submit a comprehensive report detailing their findings and recommended policies to the legislative committees overseeing higher education by January 15, 2026, with the aim of creating more robust safeguards against enrollment fraud in the state's higher education system.
