Plain-English Summary

This bill would require colleges and universities to clearly disclose information about professional degree programs—such as law, medicine, and engineering—so students can better understand costs, graduation rates, and job placement outcomes before enrolling. The goal is to help prospective students make more informed decisions about whether a particular program is worth the investment and what career prospects they can realistically expect.
