Key Takeaways

  • Requires California public universities to include labor market outcome data in admission notifications.
  • Mandates inclusion of detailed student loan information with interest rate examples in acceptance letters.
  • Establishes new transparency requirements for universities to show graduates' employment outcomes.

Summary

Assembly Member Tangipa's proposal to enhance admission notifications at California's public universities would require institutions to provide direct access to labor market data and detailed student loan information when communicating with prospective students. The California State University system would be required, and the University of California requested, to include hyperlinks to institutional websites containing graduate employment outcomes alongside admission notices.

The legislation mandates that admission notifications incorporate comprehensive student loan details, including the federal student loan disclosure statement and explanations of interest rate and fee variations across public and private loans. Universities must provide hypothetical examples demonstrating how different payment schedules affect total interest paid over a loan's duration. These requirements build upon existing provisions that direct public universities to publicly share labor market outcome data for undergraduate program graduates.
