Summary

The bill would launch a one‑year pilot that lets seniors age 60 and older take up to four undergraduate courses for free at any public college or university in Massachusetts. Schools would report the tuition they forgo, and the state would reimburse them from the General Fund, with that reimbursement becoming the baseline for future senior tuition waivers. The measure failed to pass.
