Enrolled Bill Summary

House Bill 1645 amends the Education Code to exempt an undergraduate student who transfers from an accredited private, independent, or out-of-state college or university from the requirements of the Texas Academic Skills Program in one or more of the specified skill areas if the student has earned a grade of "B" or better in a freshman-level credit course in that skill area. The exemption applies only to transfer students who enroll at a Texas public college or university for a semester or summer session that begins on or after the bill's effective date.
