Second Reading referred to Rules
Summary
The measure amends Oklahoma’s resident tuition policy to allow students who graduated from an Oklahoma high school and lived in the state for two years to qualify for resident tuition, even if they cannot immediately show U.S. citizenship or lawful status. They must file an immigration application or an affidavit promising to file, and provide proof within one year. The bill also bars individuals who are not lawfully present from receiving resident tuition or state‑funded scholarships unless they were already receiving resident tuition before the 2006‑07 school year.
