[TITLE 53b. Table of Contents]
53B-9-101 Legislative findings on higher education for senior citizens - Legislative intent - Quarterly registration fee.
(1) The Legislature finds that substantial benefits would accrue to the state, as well as those directly involved, through making higher education more accessible to senior citizens who generally find themselves with more time for learning but with less funds for such purposes.
(2) It is intended that an institution of higher education
allow Utah residents who have reached 62 years of age to
enroll at the institution, in classes for which they may
be qualified, on the basis of surplus space in regularly
scheduled classes and in accordance with this chapter and
implementing rules. These persons are exempt from tuition
and other charges, except for a quarterly registration fee
established by the board.

(2) Enrollments are determined by each institution under rules and guidelines promulgated by the board in accordance with findings of fact that space is available for the enrollments without increased instructional cost.

citizens separately, and they are not counted as full-time
