Bill overview
This bill amends New Jersey law to clarify and restrict access to in-state tuition and student financial assistance for undocumented students attending public colleges and universities. Specifically, it removes eligibility for undocumented students without a plan to legalize their status, requiring them to be U.S. citizens or eligible non-citizens. It also expands eligibility for students with T or U visas and their dependents. The bill also repeals a previous provision related to student financial aid for trafficking victims.
