HOUSE BILL 1804 |
HOUSE AUTHOR: Morrison |
EFFECTIVE: Fall Semester 2000 |
SENATE SPONSOR: Armbrister |
In 1997 the Texas Legislature amended the Education Code to provide an automatic admission to the state's public colleges and universities for applicants who graduated in the top 10 percent of their high school graduating classes provided they graduated from a public school or accredited private school in this state. House Bill 1804 further amends the code to extend this automatic college admissions policy to include Texas residents graduating in the top 10 percent from a high school operated by the United States Department of Defense.
House Bill 1804 applies beginning with admissions for the 2000 fall semester.
