Texas SB1835 modifies the Education Code to set the maximum number of nonresident scholarship students who can pay resident tuition and fees at public institutions of higher education. The cap is five percent of the total number of students registered at the institution for the same semester of the preceding academic year for institutions not in a region experiencing a population growth rate less than the statewide average. For institutions in such regions and with sufficient capacity, the cap is 20 percent.
