HB 771 amends the Texas Education Code to mandate a single common course numbering system across public higher education institutions, ensuring uniformity and simplifying the transfer of course credits. It requires institutions to align their curricula with this system by the 2030–2031 academic year, with phased implementation beginning in 2026. It establishes dispute resolution processes for credit transfers and mandates annual certification of compliance by institutions. The Act takes effect on September 1, 2025.
