AI Summary

  • Prohibits California State University from charging tuition or mandatory systemwide fees for up to 2 academic years to California Community College transfer students who have completed an associate degree for transfer and demonstrate financial need.

  • Requires the CSU Chancellor to distribute appropriated funding to each campus to offset costs of tuition and mandatory systemwide fee waivers for eligible transfer students.

  • Prioritizes funding allocation first to students with 0% expected family contribution, then to students with less than 50% expected family contribution, as determined by federal methodology.

  • Requires waived tuition and fees to supplement rather than supplant other financial aid, with students receiving grants for unwaived portions to help cover non-tuition college costs.

  • Makes undocumented students who submit a California Dream Act application eligible for tuition and fee waivers if they meet other requirements; implementation is contingent on appropriation of funds.
