Prohibits public institutions of higher education from accepting examination scores from testing entities that require disabled individuals to undergo comprehensive testing for disabilities that do not change over time

Where it is in the process
Plain-English Summary

This bill defines "disabled applicant" and "lifelong disability" in the context of higher education. Starting in the 2027-28 school year, public colleges and universities in Missouri would not be allowed to accept standardized test scores from testing companies that require disabled students to have a recent disability test (within two years) to get accommodations. This aims to ensure disabled students can receive accommodations based on existing federal disability laws without needing frequent re-testing.
