The West Valley-Mission Community College District would be the second in the state to waive tuition and fees.
As enrollment rates for community colleges across California continue to decline, one state legislator is looking to make college free for some Silicon Valley students.
If passed, the district would become the second in the state to waive tuition. Last year, Gov. Gavin Newsom West Valley-Mission Community College District Chancellor Bradley Davis said the district is “uniquely situated” to waive tuition since they receive all their funding from local property taxes. Last year, the district’s board found a way to balance its budget without collecting tuition or other fees — making the idea feasible in the first place.
“In our district it’s really important for us to do everything we can to remove barriers that stand in front of our students educational dreams,” Davis said.
