                        JANUARY 26, 2016

   An act to add Section 68052.1 to the Education Code, relating to
the University of California.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1711, as amended, McCarty. University of California:
nonresident student enrollment.
   Existing law expresses the intent of the Legislature that the
University of California establish nonresident student tuition
policies that are consistent with their resident student fee
policies. The provisions are applicable to the University of
California only if the Regents of the University of California act,
by resolution, to make them applicable.
   This bill would require the University of California, as a
condition of receipt of funds appropriated in the annual Budget Act,
to limit the percentage of nonresident undergraduate students
enrolled at the University of California systemwide to  15.5%
  10%  of total undergraduate student enrollment,
 to increase resident undergraduate student enrollment by 5,000
and decrease nonresident undergraduate student enrollment by 1,700
each year for 6 academic years beginning with the 2017-18 academic
year,  and would prohibit any campus of the University of
California where nonresident undergraduate student enrollment exceeds
15.5% from enrolling new nonresident undergraduate students in
excess of the number of new nonresident undergraduate students
enrolled in the 2015-16 academic year. The  bill, beginning
in the 2017-18 academic year, would require a certain percentage of
revenue generated from new nonresident undergraduate student
enrollment to be directed to fund increased enrollment of resident
undergraduate students, and   bill  would require
the University of California to annually publish a report with
specified information relating to nonresident undergraduate tuition
and revenue. The bill would require the University of California to
establish a policy to require each campus to admit only nonresident
undergraduate students who exceed the academic qualifications of
resident undergraduate students, as specified, and would require the
University of California to annually report specified information to
the Legislature to ensure compliance with the policy.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.
