Creates the Tuition Increase Limitation Act. Beginning with the 2003-2004 academic year, prohibits a tuition rate increase at a public university that is greater than the product of the tuition rate for the preceding academic year multiplied by a percentage that equals 2% plus the percentage increase, if any, in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for all items for the calendar year in which that preceding academic year began.
