Mississippi Commission on College Accreditation; revise composition of to ensure adequate representation.

HB 3 revises Mississippi's College Accreditation Commission to require four specific representatives: one for public community colleges, one for universities, one for private colleges, and one for for-profit schools. This ensures all major postsecondary education sectors have direct representation on the commission. The commission will maintain an approved list of institutions and require annual accreditation for schools to grant degrees or offer coursework. The bill takes effect July 1, 2025, and applies to all accredited institutions in Mississippi except those already approved before 1988 or regulated under separate laws.
