§ 54.013. STUDENTS 55 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER. (a) An
institution of higher education may charge a student 55 years of age

student under 55 years of age will not be precluded from enrolling
in a course for credit toward a degree or certificate. The
institution may set additional qualifications that a student must
meet to qualify for tuition and fees at rates set under this section
and may set different rates for different programs, campuses, or
courses. The institution may set rates under this section for
resident students, nonresident students, or both, and may set
different rates for resident students and nonresident students.
(b) A tuition or fee rate set under this section must apply
uniformly to each student that meets the applicable qualifications
set by the institution to pay tuition or fees at that rate.

for the rates authorized by Subsection (a) in a way that does not
increase the general revenue appropriations to that institution.
