Bill overview
This bill requires New Jersey’s public colleges and universities to report data on students placed in remedial courses. The Office of the Secretary of Higher Education will compile this information into an annual report, disaggregated by institution, subject area, and high school. The report will also track trends and identify school districts with unusually high rates of remedial course enrollment, potentially alerting the State Auditor or Department of Education. Additionally, the bill amends existing school report cards to include data on students placed in remedial courses at higher education institutions, contributing to a more comprehensive picture of student success and challenges.
