Bill summary

Amends GS 116-144 to require that for the 2023-24 academic year, the tuition charged nonresidents enrolled in any program awarding a postsecondary degree at NC State University and UNC-Chapel Hill be set at a rate in an amount of at least 10% greater than the tuition charged nonresidents enrolled at those institutions for the 2022-23 academic year. Requires that in subsequent academic years that the Board of Governors fix nonresident tuition for postsecondary degree programs at these institutions at rate that is equal to or greater than the amount of tuition charged nonresidents for the 2023-24 academic year. Makes conforming changes.

Requires that beginning with the 2023-24 fiscal year, additional tuition receipts generated from increasing the tuition charged nonresidents enrolled in a program awarding a postsecondary degree at NC State University and UNC-Chapel Hill under this act, be used by the UNC Board of Governors to decrease tuition charged for in-State students enrolled at those institutions beginning with the 2023-24 academic year and subsequent academic years thereafter.

Applies to academic periods beginning on or after July 1, 2023.
