2011 SESSION
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:
1. That § 23-9.6:2 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows:
§ 23-9.6:2. Tuition relief, refunds, and reinstatement for certain students.
The Council shall issue and from time to time revise
guidelines for tuition relief, refunds, and reinstatement for students whose active
military duty during a defense crisis service in the uniformed services has
required their sudden withdrawal or prolonged absence from their enrollment in a
public institution of higher education and shall provide for the required
reenrollment of such students by the relevant institution. These guidelines
shall be excluded from the provisions of the Administrative Process Act
pursuant to § 2.2-4002.
The Council shall appoint an advisory committee of at least 10 representatives of the public institutions to assist in the development and subsequent revision of these guidelines. The Council shall consult with the Office of the Attorney General and shall provide opportunity for public comment prior to issuing any such guidelines.
The first set of guidelines shall be issued by July 1,
1991, and shall be immediately incorporated by all public institutions of
higher education in their tuition and enrollment policies. These guidelines
shall be applied to all persons whose active military duty during a defense
crisis required their sudden withdrawal or prolonged absence after January 1,
1990.
The guidelines shall include procedures for the required
reenrollment of students whose call to active duty military service in
the uniformed services precluded their completion of a semester or
equivalent term and policies for the required reenrollment of such military
students.
