SUMMARY:

Revocation of in-state tuition for alcohol and drug offenses. Provides for the revocation of in-state tuition for students convicted of offenses involving alcohol, controlled substances, or marijuana. Upon disposition of a proceeding in a circuit or district court in which a person who has been identified by the attorney for the Commonwealth as a student enrolled in a public institution of higher education in Virginia is convicted of these offenses, the clerk of the relevant court is to provide written notice of the disposition to the governing board of the public institution of higher education in which the student is enrolled at the time of the disposition or, if he is not then enrolled in such institution, the institution in which he was enrolled at the time of the offense.

Upon receipt of such report, the relevant governing board is to revoke the in-state tuition status of such student for a period not to exceed one year pursuant to regulations to be promulgated by the State Council of Higher Education. Such regulations are to include provisions addressing the duration of such revocation; the effect of graduation or failure to re-enroll on such revocation; terms of payment or reimbursement for tuition costs; and subsequent dissemination of such reports.
