Overview
This bill aims to ensure that military members and their dependents attending county colleges in New Jersey receive the same lower tuition rates as New Jersey residents. Currently, many military personnel are charged higher out-of-state tuition fees because their address is not considered a New Jersey resident for tuition purposes. This legislation would change this by classifying military members and their dependents as residents of the county where they live or are stationed for tuition rate determination. The bill will take effect immediately and apply to the upcoming academic year.
