Senate Bill 315 amends the Education Code to expand the prepaid higher education tuition program to allow prepaid tuition contracts to cover tuition and fees at proprietary schools that offer two-year associate degrees approved by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. The act also allows a purchaser of a prepaid tuition contract for a private college plan to enter into a supplemental contract for the prepayment of tuition and fees for an additional year of undergraduate study beyond the term of the original contract.
