Finally, the bill requires an institution of higher education and the Higher
Educational Aids Board (HEAB) to create on their Internet sites a link to that portion
of DFI's Internet site containing the lists and other information required under the
bill.
Student loan counseling
This bill requires any institution of higher education in this state that offers an
associate's or higher degree to provide loan counseling for its students. Under the
bill, before a student enters into a student loan agreement, the institution must
provide the student with comprehensive information on the terms and conditions of
a loan and the responsibilities the student has with respect to the loan. A lender may
not accept an application for a private student loan, or assess any fees for the loan,
unless the lender has received certification from the applicant's institution of higher
education that the applicant has received such counseling.
The bill also requires an institution of higher education to provide a student
with information when the student leaves the institution, whether through
graduation, transfer, or otherwise. The information must include available loan
repayment plans, debt management strategies, options for prepayment of loans, and
the consequences of defaulting on a loan.
Finally, the bill authorizes an institution of higher education to assess a lender
a reasonable fee of up to $50 to defray the cost of the student counseling required
under the bill.
Income tax subtraction
Under current law, there is an individual income tax subtraction for amounts
paid by a claimant for tuition expenses and mandatory student fees for a student who
is the claimant or the claimant's dependent under the Internal Revenue Code, to
attend an institution of higher education that is approved by the Educational
Approval Board and that is located in Wisconsin, or to attend certain postsecondary
schools in Minnesota to which the Minnesota-Wisconsin reciprocity agreement
applies. The tuition expenses and fees for which a subtraction may be claimed are
calculated based on the amount of tuition charged by the UW System at four-year
institutions.

Also under current law, the subtraction that a claimant may claim for such
tuition expenses and mandatory student fees is reduced as the claimant's annual
federal adjusted gross income (FAGI) increases until, at a certain point, no
subtraction may be claimed. Currently, the allowable subtraction phases out, for a
single person or a married person filing as a head of household, as the claimant's
FAGI increases from $50,000 to $60,000. Once such a claimant's FAGI exceeds
$60,000, he or she may not claim the subtraction. For a married person filing a joint
return, the phaseout occurs as the married couple's joint FAGI increases from
$80,000 to $100,000, and no subtraction is allowed once the married couple's joint
FAGI exceeds $100,000. The phaseout for a married person filing a separate return
occurs as the claimant's FAGI increases from $40,000 to $50,000, and no subtraction
is allowed once the claimant's FAGI exceeds $50,000.
Under this bill, the phase-out provisions do not apply to a taxable year that
begins after December 31, 2013.
This bill also expands the definition of tuition expenses to include any amount
paid by a claimant in the year to which the claim relates on a student loan, the
proceeds of which were used by the claimant to pay the claimant's expenses for
tuition, fees, books, room and board, and educational supplies that were directly
related to the claimant's attendance at an eligible institution. The bill defines
eligible institution as a regionally accredited, nonprofit, postsecondary educational
institution.
Student loan debt report
Under current law, HEAB administers certain grant and loan programs for
resident students enrolled in institutions of higher education in this state.
This bill requires HEAB to submit an annual report to the Joint Committee on
Finance regarding student loan debt incurred in the previous year by resident
undergraduate students enrolled in the institutions within the UW System, the
technical colleges within the technical college system, the tribally controlled colleges
in this state, and the private, nonprofit accredited institutions of higher education
in this state (collectively, "institutions of higher education located in this state"). The
report must include that information, together with all of the following:
1. The statewide average amount of student loan debt incurred in the previous
year by resident undergraduate students enrolled in institutions of higher education
located in this state.
2. A comparison of that statewide average to the national average amount of
student loan debt incurred in the previous year by undergraduate students enrolled
in institutions of higher education in the United States.
3. A comparison of that statewide average to the statewide average amount of
student loan debt incurred in the previous year by undergraduate students in the
state with the lowest ratio of statewide average student loan debt to the lowest
quintile of state per capita income.
Because this bill relates to an exemption from state or local taxes, it may be
referred to the Joint Survey Committee on Tax Exemptions for a report to be printed
as an appendix to the bill.

For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
