The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 124D.09, subdivision 9, to enhance postsecondary enrollment options for secondary students. It maintains the requirement for postsecondary institutions to prioritize their own students when enrolling pupils in grades 10, 11, and 12, while also allowing institutions to provide information and recruit secondary students based on educational, programmatic, or financial grounds under specific conditions. The bill continues to prohibit the enrollment of secondary pupils in non-college level courses, except for those in a middle or early college program, and ensures that once a pupil is enrolled in a postsecondary course, they cannot be displaced by another student.

A significant addition to the law is the insertion of a provision that mandates postsecondary institutions to allow secondary pupils to enroll in summer courses, aligning with the institution's policies on summer enrollment. This change aims to provide greater flexibility and opportunities for secondary students to engage in postsecondary education during the summer months.
