Georgia Considers Limits on College Course Payments

Georgia lawmakers are considering limits on how much the state will pay for high school students to take college courses. Gov. Brian Kemp and a number of legislators have been raising concerns about the growing cost of Georgia's dual enrollment program.

On Wednesday, state Rep. Bert Reeves unveiled a Kemp-backed bill that would limit most students to 30 hours of dual enrollment credit. House Bill 444 would also ban freshmen from dual enrollment courses.
