Pritzker Signs College Access and Affordability Bills into Law

CHICAGO –  Illinois is taking steps to help high school students pursuing higher education.  Governor Pritzker signed four bills into law earlier this week that aim to improve college access and affordability.  One measure streamlines the admissions process, eliminates unnecessary application fees, and expands access to postsecondary education through a new direct admissions program.  The other three expand dual credit opportunities, require a FAFSA point of contact, and mandate FAFSA assistance options during school hours.
