Higher education; prohibiting certain institutions of higher education from using state funds for certain purposes. Effective date. Emergency.
Second Reading referred to Rules Committee then to Appropriations Committee
Summary
The bill bars any Oklahoma State System college or university from using state money to give scholarships, grants, tuition aid, or discounted tuition to foreign national students starting in the 2026‑27 academic year. The Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education must write rules to carry out the restriction. It matters because it limits how state education funds can be applied to non‑U.S. students.
