Title

Prepaid Affordable College Tuition (PACT) Program, limit on cost of tuition for certain PACT plan contract participants, repealed, Act 2010-725, 2010 Reg. Sess. am'd.; Secs. 16-33C-17, 16-33C-18 repealed

Summary

HB483 would repeal the limit on tuition costs for certain PACT prepaid college tuition plan participants.

What This Bill Does

It repeals Sections 16-33C-17 and 16-33C-18 (formerly Act 2010-725) that place a cap on tuition costs for PACT plan contract participants. With the repeal, there would be no statutory cap on the cost of tuition for those participants. The act would take effect on the first day of the third month after it is passed and signed by the governor.

Who It Affects

• PACT plan contract participants (students covered by the PACT program) – would no longer be subject to a tuition-cost cap
• PACT program administrators and participating colleges – may need to adjust contracts and administration to reflect the removal of the cap

Key Provisions

• Repeals Sections 16-33C-17 and 16-33C-18 of the Code of Alabama 1975, which previously set limits on the cost of tuition for certain PACT plan contract participants.
• Provides that the act becomes effective on the first day of the third month after its passage and governor's approval.
