Summary

The bill would let students who leave California because of immigration enforcement continue taking community‑college courses online without paying nonresident tuition, as long as they re‑enroll within three years. It also lets those students keep resident tuition status and apply for financial aid if they later return to campus. The measure aims to preserve educational progress for a vulnerable population.
