Minnesota HF421 prohibits legacy admissions and donor-based preferential treatment in higher education institutions.
Minnesota HF421 aims to ensure fair admissions processes by prohibiting any preferential treatment in higher education institutions based on legacy status or donor relationships. This bill defines "legacy status" as the familial relationship of an applicant to an alumnus of the institution. It mandates that no public or private institution of higher education can provide preferential treatment in admissions decisions based on legacy status or familial ties to donors. The Board of Regents of the University of Minnesota is requested to comply with this provision.
