Summary

The bill requires every higher‑education institution that receives state money to create and put into effect a policy that can ignore a applicant’s past unsatisfactory or failing grades from another college. The policy applies only if the applicant meets a time condition and chooses to use the forgiveness option. It aims to give former students a clearer path back to college without past grades blocking admission.
