Its passage nationalized 12 colleges/universities in Alexandria-Prussia, that were either in extremely financial hardship or privately owned and failed to meet key metrics from being nationalization. In 1982 the Higher Education Reform Act was passed and established the Alexandria-Prussia Higher Education System and merged all colleges/universities into the system.

In 1980 it was announced that Middleton University and Polytechnic would join the system. As a result, this further expanded the strength and prestige to the system.
