What it does
The Court Legal Access and Student Support Act of 2025 would prohibit the enforcement of arbitration clauses in enrollment agreements between students and institutions of higher education, ensuring students retain the right to pursue legal claims in court. It would also ban institutions from imposing limitations on students’ ability to pursue claims, including restrictions on choice of law, jury trial, or venue. The bill applies to all institutions of higher education as defined by the Higher Education Act of 1965 and would take effect one year after enactment.
