Overview
This bill establishes the California State University Enrollment, Access, and Retention of Nontraditional Noncontinuous Students Program to increase the rate at which students who previously attended California State University re-enroll and complete their degrees. The program requires the California State University Chancellor to prioritize enrollment funding for campuses with effective outreach programs and encourages the Trustees to develop a policy for evaluating transcripts of returning students. Campuses are also required to designate advisors and provide priority registration to these students, and the Trustees must maintain a data dashboard tracking re-enrollment trends and student demographics.
