Senate Bill 1304 amends the Education Code to require an institution of higher education that is required by state law to set aside a portion of a student's tuition payments for providing financial assistance for students enrolled in the institution to provide to each student who pays tuition from which a portion is required to be set aside for that purpose a notice regarding the specific amount that is required to be set aside by the institution. The bill specifies the means by which such notice is to be provided and requires the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board by rule to prescribe minimum standards for the manner, form, and content of the notice. The bill makes its provisions applicable beginning with tuition charged for the 2010 spring semester.
