HB 4150 Michigan House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Education: other; fees for evaluation of applications; eliminate. Amends secs. 1531h & 1538 of 1976 PA 451 (MCL 380.1531h & 380.1538).

HB 4150 eliminates application evaluation fees for school-related processes under Michigan's Revised School Code. It directly affects individuals applying for educational certifications, programs, or school-related services by removing a requirement to pay fees when their applications are reviewed. The bill amends two specific sections (MCL 380.1531h and 380.1538) to delete the fee mandate, streamlining the application process. This change applies statewide to all relevant school applications governed by the revised code. The bill passed the Michigan House with strong support (83-26) on March 12, 2025, and is now awaiting further legislative action.
