Synopsis As Introduced
Amends various Acts relating to the governance of public universities in Illinois. Provides that, subject to appropriation to offset the costs, for the 2015-2016, 2016-2017, and 2017-2018 academic years, the tuition charged an undergraduate student who is an Illinois resident pursuing a major in a science, technology, engineering, or mathematics field of study must not exceed the tuition amount charged an undergraduate student who is an Illinois resident for the 2014-2015 academic year. Provides that if money is not appropriated in a given fiscal year to offset the costs of this freeze on the tuition rate, then the governing board of the university, for that particular academic year, is authorized to charge a lesser amount of tuition to students who are Illinois residents pursuing a major in a science, technology, engineering, or mathematics field of study than the tuition charged students who are Illinois residents pursuing majors in other fields of study.
