Revises law permitting undocumented students to pay in-State tuition rate at public institution of higher education and receive certain student financial assistance.

Summary

The measure changes New Jersey law so that only U.S. citizens or eligible noncitizens can qualify for in‑state tuition rates at public colleges and for state‑funded financial aid. Undocumented students who meet the current residency and affidavit requirements would lose those benefits, while victims of trafficking with T/U visas and dependents of certain work‑visa holders keep existing exemptions. The change tightens eligibility based on immigration status.
