An Act expanding access to higher education tuition and fee waivers for adopted foster children

SD 827 amends a state law to expand tuition and fee waivers for adopted foster children attending college. The bill removes the restriction requiring waivers to apply only to "state-supported" institutions, making them available at both public and private colleges. It also changes the waiver to cover "full" tuition and fees, meaning eligible students pay nothing for these costs. This directly affects adopted foster youth pursuing higher education by increasing their access to financial support at any institution.
