The bill would protect academic freedom while giving the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) more power to set minimum standards, approve programs, and oversee both public and private colleges and universities. It also adds incentives for high‑quality schools, tax breaks for government aid to private schools, and steps to make it easier for foreign students to study in the Philippines.
