The Mississippi Senate passed a bill last week to reduce tuition for out-of-state students, bringing their tuition in line with in-state students. The bill, S.B. 2285, is designed to encourage more out-of-state enrollments into state schools, which have been historically unable to compete for students from other states.
The bill now goes to the House. If approved by the full legislature, the bill then goes to Gov. Haley Barbour for his signature.
