AI Summary

  • Requires colleges to notify secondary schools when a College Credit Plus participant withdraws from a course

  • Shifts textbook cost responsibilities: colleges must use open source materials when available; if a paid textbook is required but open source alternatives exist, the college pays full cost; if no alternatives exist, the college and secondary school each pay 50%

  • Removes secondary schools' responsibility to pay for textbooks under the default payment structure, eliminating the previous requirement that schools cover textbook costs

  • Changes payment category for online courses, moving them from the lower-reimbursement category (courses at secondary schools taught by college faculty) to the higher-reimbursement category (courses on campus or at college-operated locations)

  • Prohibits charging economically disadvantaged students for textbooks under any payment arrangement, expanding existing protections that already cover tuition and fees
