This bill would change the Higher Education Act of 1965. It would require institutions of higher education that take part in Title IV student aid programs to ensure that not more than 20 percent of the student athletes on a varsity sports team are international students. The bill was introduced in the Senate by Jon Husted and Tommy Tuberville. It was read twice and referred to the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions. Status: In progress.
If your college or university accepts Title IV federal student aid, each varsity sports team would have to make sure 20 percent or fewer of its student athletes are international students. The bill text makes this a condition for participating in Title IV programs.
