Summary

The bill changes the Student Transfer Achievement Reform Act so that students who have earned at least 30 credit hours at a community college and are enrolled at a state university can have those credits transferred back to receive an associate degree. State universities must automatically inform eligible students during their first term, and community colleges must provide guidance and cannot charge any fees for the process. It aims to make it easier for transfer students to complete an associate degree and have it recorded in their records.
