Excess Credit Hour Surcharge
My bill that will increase the amount of credit hours university students can take before a surcharge kicks in has passed its second committee! Right now, when students take 10% more classes than are required by their major, they are subject to a costly surcharge. We are extending this threshold to 20%.
This will allow students to pursue studies in highly-demanded fields that require more coursework without the fear of not being able to afford the required classes. I'm excited to continue working with Rep. Mariono to help keep more students out of debt!
