An Act relative to college in high school

This bill establishes a structured framework for "college in high school" programs in Massachusetts. It requires public colleges to create clear policies for awarding credit for high school courses (including AP, IB, and dual enrollment), post these policies online, and notify students about credit eligibility. The bill also creates a dedicated trust fund (administered by education departments) to support these programs, particularly in underserved communities, and establishes a new state office to oversee program quality, ensuring they offer coherent college credit pathways, industry credentials, or apprenticeships while emphasizing student preparation and parental involvement.
