Rhode Island H7893 bans universities from giving preferential treatment to applicants based on family ties to previous attendees.
Rhode Island H7893 amends the General Laws to prohibit public and private universities from extending preferential treatment to applicants due to familial relationships with previous attendees. The bill also mandates that universities must not inquire about such relationships during the admissions process. If a university discovers such a relationship post-application, it is still prohibited from offering preferential treatment. This act would take effect immediately upon passage.
