HB0208 - Modification of Exemption from Nonresident Tuition

State Impact:
Implementation of this bill would likely curtail the growth in the number of certain nonimmigrant alien students enrolling in institutions of higher education in the state. This would result in an estimated loss of future tuition revenue of approximately $150,000 annually.
