Section 8663.

(a) The Legislature finds and declares that the admission of out-of-state pupils to the California State Summer School for Mathematics and Science can enhance the national and international standing of the pupils who attend the summer school.

(b) It is the intent of the Legislature that pursuant to the eligibility criteria set forth in Section 8662, the Regents of the University of California adopt policies that will enable pupils who are not California residents, including residents of other countries, to be admitted to the California State Summer School for Mathematics and Science, not to exceed in any year 20 pupils or 5 percent of the total pupil population of the summer school, whichever is less. It is the further intent of the Legislature that admission of a nonresident under this subdivision may not result in the denial of admission under this chapter to a California resident who is eligible for that admission and satisfies applicable qualifications for admission.
