The Students’ Right to Know Act was passed during the 2023 legislative session as Act 2023-556. This law charges the Alabama Commission on Higher Education with developing the Student Horizon Database.  Horizon is an online interactive tool designed to provide parents and students with a variety of financial and academic information to help them make informed decisions about their education and future career paths.
