Massachusetts H1277 ensures students' access to academic transcripts by prohibiting institutions from withholding them due to unpaid loans, fines.

Massachusetts H1277 amends the General Laws to ensure students' access to academic transcripts by prohibiting institutions of higher education from withholding them solely due to unpaid loans, fines, fees, tuition, or other expenses. However, institutions may still withhold academic credits and grades for courses where tuition and mandatory course fees are not paid. This provision applies to all postsecondary institutions, including public institutions, private occupational schools, and private colleges and universities.
