The bills expand access to financial aid for students, strengthen integrity in college admissions and enhance oversight of for-profit colleges in California.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHigher education has the power to transform lives, and all hardworking young people in our state deserve a shot at it,\u201d said Governor Newsom. \u201cThis package of bills strikes at the forces that keep the doors of opportunity closed to too many people in our state. Together, we\u2019re improving affordability, transparency and integrity in higher education. I thank the Legislature for making this commitment to our students and our future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.ca.gov\/2019\/10\/04\/governor-newsom-signs-bills-to-increase-financial-aid-improve-integrity-in-college-admissions-and-hold-for-profit-colleges-accountable\/\" target=\"_blank\">View the full release on Governor Newsom&#8217;s website.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Building on the state\u2019s historic investment in two years of free community college and substantial state budget investments that allowed the University of California and the<span class=\"excerpt-hellip\"> [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":665,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v15.9.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Governor Newsom Signs Bills to Increase Financial Aid, Improve Integrity in College Admissions and Hold For-Profit Colleges Accountable | California Governor&#039;s Council for Post-Secondary Education<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/2020\/10\/04\/governor-signs-higher-education-bills\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Governor Newsom Signs Bills to Increase Financial Aid, Improve Integrity in College Admissions and Hold For-Profit Colleges Accountable | California Governor&#039;s Council for Post-Secondary Education\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Building on the state\u2019s historic investment in two years of free community college and substantial state budget investments that allowed the University of California and the [\u2026]\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/2020\/10\/04\/governor-signs-higher-education-bills\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"California Governor&#039;s Council for Post-Secondary Education\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2020-10-04T13:54:14+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2020-12-15T00:09:15+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/GavinNewsom-2podium-edit-1200x750-1.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1200\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"750\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@CAPostsecForAll\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@CAPostsecForAll\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\">\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"1 minute\">\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"@id\":\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/#organization\",\"name\":\"California Governor's Council for Post-Secondary Education\",\"url\":\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/\",\"sameAs\":[\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CAPostsecForAll\"],\"logo\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"@id\":\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/#logo\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"url\":\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Screen-Shot-2020-12-21-at-9.38.02-AM.png\",\"width\":680,\"height\":174,\"caption\":\"California Governor's Council for Post-Secondary Education\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/#logo\"}},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/#website\",\"url\":\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/\",\"name\":\"California Governor's Council for Post-Secondary Education\",\"description\":\"\",\"publisher\":{\"@id\":\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/#organization\"},\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/?s={search_term_string}\",\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"@id\":\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/2020\/10\/04\/governor-signs-higher-education-bills\/#primaryimage\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"url\":\"http:\/\/wgclient.com\/dev.cagov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/GavinNewsom-2podium-edit-1200x750-1.jpg\",\"width\":1200,\"height\":750,\"caption\":\"Gov.
