Texas SB915 limits tuition increases for public higher education institutions starting in 2026.

Starting with the 2026 fall semester, Texas SB915 limits the total tuition charged by public institutions of higher education.

The limit expires after the 2029-2030 academic year. Governing boards may set different tuition rates for specific circumstances but must adhere to the overall limit. The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board can adopt rules to administer these provisions.
