Bill was re-reported to committee with amendments after initial passage, indicating further legislative review before final adoption.

Added definition for 'International athlete' alongside the existing 'Team USA athlete' definition, allowing international student athletes to qualify for tuition reductions.

Modified the tuition reduction language to explicitly include both Team USA and international athletes who are training in New York State in approved elite level programs.

Added requirement that tuition reductions apply only when students are enrolled in state university institutions and are training in approved elite programs.
