	BILL TEXT


INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Members McCarty and Medina

                        JANUARY 26, 2016

   An act to add Section 68052.1 to the Education Code, relating to
the University of California.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1711, as introduced, McCarty. University of California:
nonresident student enrollment.
   Existing law expresses the intent of the Legislature that the
University of California establish nonresident student tuition
policies that are consistent with their resident student fee
policies. The provisions are applicable to the University of
California only if the Regents of the University of California act,
by resolution, to make them applicable.
   This bill would require the University of California, as a
condition of receipt of funds appropriated in the annual Budget Act,
to limit the percentage of undergraduate nonresident students
enrolled at the University of California systemwide to 15.5% of total
undergraduate student enrollment, and, until July 1, 2021, would
prohibit any campus of the University of California where
undergraduate nonresident student enrollment exceeds 15.5% from
enrolling new undergraduate nonresident students. The bill would
require a certain percentage of revenue generated from undergraduate
nonresident enrollment to be directed to fund increased enrollment of
undergraduate resident students, and would require the University of
California to annually publish a report with specified information
relating to undergraduate nonresident tuition and revenue.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.
