in-state student status; nonimmigrant aliens

HB 2572 modifies Arizona law to expand in-state tuition eligibility for certain students. It allows nonimmigrant aliens (excluding those covered under 8 U.S. Code § 1101(a)(15)) who attended Arizona high school for two years and graduated locally (including homeschoolers) to qualify for in-state rates at Arizona public universities and community colleges. This includes students without lawful immigration status who meet the residency requirements. The bill requires a three-fourths legislative vote for enactment under Arizona's Constitution.
