The bill mandates that all public high schools in Minnesota participate in the direct admissions program starting in the 2029-2030 school year. Schools may be exempt from this requirement if their school board adopts a written resolution to that effect. This initiative aims to streamline the college admissions process for students and enhance access to higher education.

Additionally, the bill introduces new legal language to Minnesota Statutes, specifically in chapter 120B, by adding section 120B.1251, which outlines the participation requirements for high schools. The effective date for this section is set for July 1, 2025, allowing schools time to prepare for the upcoming changes.
