California AB1035 expands fee waiver eligibility for the California College Promise program.

California AB1035 amends the California College Promise program to expand fee waiver eligibility. The bill allows full-time first-time and returning community college students to receive fee waivers for two academic years. It also extends fee waiver eligibility to students who are members of the Armed Forces and are called to active duty. The waiver covers fees for the summer term and each semester or quarter of an academic year. The bill requires community colleges to report on the use of these funds annually and mandates a report to the Legislature evaluating the program's effectiveness.
