§ 54.057. LIABILITY FOR UNPAID NONRESIDENT TUITION. (a)
The following persons are liable for the difference between
resident and nonresident tuition for each academic term in which
the person pays resident tuition as the result of an erroneous
classification under this subchapter:
(1) a person who, in a timely manner after the
information becomes available or on request by the institution of
higher education, fails to provide to the institution information
that the person reasonably should know would be relevant to an
accurate classification by the institution under this subchapter;
or
(2) a person who provides false information to the
institution that the person reasonably should know could lead to an
erroneous classification by the institution under this subchapter.
(b) The person shall pay the applicable amount to the
institution not later than the 30th day after the date the person is
notified of the person's liability for the amount owed. After
receiving the notice and until the amount is paid in full, the
person is not entitled to receive from the institution a
certificate or diploma, if not yet awarded on the date of the
notice, or official transcript that is based at least partially on
or includes credit for courses taken while the person was
erroneously classified as a resident of this state.
(c) A person who is erroneously classified as a resident of
this state under this subchapter but who is entitled or permitted to
pay resident tuition under this subchapter is not liable for the
difference between resident and nonresident tuition under this
section.
