HB 1833 Arkansas House · 2025 Regular Session

TO AMEND THE LAW CONCERNING THE ADMISSIONS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS COLLEGE OF MEDICINE.

This bill, HB 1833, amends the law concerning admissions at the University of Arkansas College of Medicine. The provided text, Amendment No. 1, modifies specific conditions related to the number of qualified applicants. It specifies that certain admission provisions apply only if fewer than twenty-five applicants from a congressional district, or fewer than twenty-five Arkansas residents, meet published admissions standards and accept an offer. This directly affects prospective medical students and the College of Medicine's admissions process by setting thresholds for geographic and residency-based considerations.

Act 806 → HB 1833 · 3 edits

MINOR

The bill was renumbered from Act 806 to HB 1833 for the 95th General Assembly, and the approval date was removed from the document header. These are administrative changes related to the bill's identification and formatting rather than substantive policy changes.

TECHNICAL

Removed the text 'Act 806 of the Regular Session' from the header, indicating a change in how the bill is identified.

Added blank lines in the header section, likely for formatting consistency in the new bill version.

Removed the approval date '4/17/25' from line 15, which appears to be a formatting adjustment rather than a policy change.
