Summary

The bill obligates any Iowa postsecondary school that offers a degree requiring a clinical rotation to, when a student asks, find a placement where the student can be exempt from the site’s vaccination rules for the duration of the rotation. If a school does not comply, it is barred from being an eligible institution for Iowa tuition grants. The measure also revises the legal definition of “eligible institution” to include specific requirements for barbering and cosmetology schools and matching financial‑aid contributions.
