SB 975 - Currently, only public community colleges and
public vocational or technical schools are statutorily authorized
to receive A+ reimbursements. This act additionally allows any
private vocational or technical school that is a member of the
North Central Association and accredited by the Higher Learning
Commission to receive A+ reimbursements, provided that such
reimbursements do not violate certain constitutional provisions
and also provided that the private vocational or technical school
does not receive tuition reimbursements in excess of the tuition
rate charged by a public community college for course work
offered by the private vocational or technical school within the
service area of that community college.
