§ 10803 Student Identifier Reporting Requirements

This law tells California’s community colleges, UC schools, and CSU schools to set up a system that gives each student a unique statewide ID and to keep track of it, and then to send a yearly update about how it’s going to the governor and the legislature.

Key Takeaways

  • •All three California college systems must create a way to issue, keep, and report using a unique statewide student ID.
  • •They have to use the specific ID format described in another law (Section 60900(e)(3)).
  • •Each year, by April 1, they must send a progress report to the governor and the legislative committees, including a timeline for finishing the ID system.

Example

A student enrolls at a community college and gets a special state ID number that matches the same number used by UC and CSU schools. The college records the student’s info with that number and, by April 1, sends a report to the governor saying the system is working and what steps are left to finish.

The college is following the law by using the unique statewide ID and by reporting its progress each year.
