Higher education; Oklahoma Higher Learning Access Program; no award for reenrollment in failed courses; effective date; emergency.

HB 1747 amends Oklahoma's Higher Learning Access Program (OKHAP) to prohibit funding for students reenrolling in courses they previously failed. Starting with the 2025-2026 academic year, OKHAP awards will no longer cover tuition for courses students must retake after failing them. The bill directly affects OKHAP recipients who need to repeat failed coursework, removing financial support for those reenrollments. This change aims to ensure program funds are used for courses leading toward degree completion, not repeated attempts at previously failed material.
