An Act relative to a tuition and fee freeze at all public colleges and universities.

HD 357 freezes tuition and fees at public colleges and universities at the 2022-2023 level. It applies directly to students attending public institutions of higher education defined in the bill (including all state universities and colleges). The freeze begins for the 2025-2026 academic year and ends at the conclusion of the 2029-2030 academic year. This policy change prevents public colleges from raising tuition or fees above the 2022-2023 rate during this specified period.
