Signed on May 1, 2024, and effective July 1, 2024, HF 2615 requires school districts to provide 11th and 12th graders with information about post-graduation outcomes for community colleges and Regent Universities.
This includes:
- Data on average income and debt for graduates of Iowa Regent Universities - Iowa Board of Regents' Recent Alumni Career Outcomes site
- Outcome information for Iowa's community college graduates. - Iowa Student Outcomes website (I encourage the districts to use the community college profiles portion for this section)
