SD 1303 Massachusetts Senate · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to college in high school

This bill establishes a Massachusetts Office of College in High School to oversee programs allowing high school students to earn college credit or industry credentials while in high school. It requires public colleges to create clear policies for granting credit for college-in-high school courses, AP exams, and IB programs, and mandates that these policies be publicly posted. A dedicated trust fund is created to support these programs, with priority given to underserved communities and school districts serving economically disadvantaged students. The bill also mandates annual reporting on fund usage and college credit policies to state education committees.
