Summary
The bill adds a new section to the state's higher‑education statutes that bars any post‑secondary school from refusing to release a student's official transcript if the student has paid all required tuition and mandatory fees for that course. Schools could still hold transcripts for unpaid balances and may withhold diplomas for other unpaid debts.
