S 6585 New York Senate · 2023 Regular Session

Extends certain tuition waivers for police officer students of the city university of New York

This bill extends tuition waivers for police officer students attending the City University of New York until July 1, 2026. It directly affects current and future police recruits who are enrolled in CUNY by allowing them to continue receiving reduced or free tuition under existing state laws. The legislation simply updates the expiration date of a previous program, ensuring financial support for these students continues for an additional two years. Once signed into law, the change takes effect immediately without requiring new applications or additional funding processes.
