|
| 2 | | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois, |
| 3 | | represented in the General Assembly:
|
| 4 | | Section 5. The University of Illinois Act is amended by |
| 5 | | changing Section 7g as follows:
|
| 6 | | (110 ILCS 305/7g)
|
| 7 | | Sec. 7g. Tuition waivers. In addition to any tuition |
| 8 | | waivers that
that the
Board of Trustees offers that are exempt |
| 9 | | by statute from any tuition waiver
limitation established by |
| 10 | | the Illinois Board of Higher Education, the Board of
Trustees |
| 11 | | is authorized to waive, for individuals with the requisite |
| 12 | | athletic,
academic, or other abilities, that percentage of its |
| 13 | | undergraduate tuition that
is authorized under the tuition |
| 14 | | waiver limitation established in regulations
promulgated by |
| 15 | | the Illinois Board of Higher Education. If in any fiscal year
|
| 16 | | the Board of Trustees issues undergraduate tuition waivers to |
| 17 | | individuals in an
aggregate amount exceeding the aggregate |
| 18 | | tuition waiver amount authorized
for that fiscal year under the |
| 19 | | tuition waiver limitation established by the
Illinois Board of |
| 20 | | Higher Education, the University's budget request for the
|
| 21 | | succeeding fiscal year may be reduced by the Illinois Board of |
| 22 | | Higher Education
by an amount equal to that tuition waiver |
| 23 | | excess. |
