Permits member of New Jersey National Guard to transfer 50 percent of certain tuition benefit to dependent child or 100 percent of certain tuition benefit to spouse.

Summary

The legislation expands the existing tuition‑free program for New Jersey National Guard members, letting them transfer the benefit to a spouse or a dependent child. A spouse can receive up to 16 tuition‑free credits per semester, while a child can receive up to eight. This change could increase access to higher education for Guard families but may reduce revenue for public colleges.
