Expands access to college in the high school program for private school students.

The bill expands access to the college in the high school program for private school students. It mandates that public and private schools award high school credit for successful completion of program courses. If no comparable course is offered, the chief administrator determines the credits. Institutions of higher education must provide enrollment in these courses at no cost for eligible students. The bill also outlines quality and eligibility standards for the program, ensuring it encourages maximum use without narrowing enrollment options.
