Amend section providing for waiver of tuition and fees for older persons auditing certain college classes
HB 3081 would lower West Virginia's eligibility age for a senior citizen tuition waiver program from 65 to 60 years old. This change would allow older adults aged 60 and above to qualify for reduced tuition and fees when auditing college courses without credit (at a maximum $50 per course, excluding lab and parking fees) or taking courses for credit (at 50% of resident rates). The program requires participants to be West Virginia residents or metro area students and ensures available classroom space, applying to both in-person and online courses. The bill maintains existing structure but expands access to a broader age group without altering other eligibility criteria.
