A bill for an act relating to tuition charged to resident undergraduate students enrolled at regents institutions.

This bill requires Iowa's public universities (regents institutions) to freeze tuition for in-state undergraduate students after their first year of enrollment, starting with students beginning in 2027 or later. It applies only to the first three consecutive academic years following a student's initial enrollment, including students with transfer credits who can complete degrees faster. The freeze does not apply to any years beyond those three, and it specifically covers tuition charged in the student's initial year of enrollment. This policy directly affects Iowa resident undergraduate students at public universities, aiming to stabilize costs during their early academic years.
