Revises licensure process for out-of-State institutions of higher education.

Summary

The bill requires any college or university located outside New Jersey that wants to teach credit‑bearing courses, degree‑completion programs, or full degree programs with a physical presence in the state to submit a detailed petition to the Secretary of Higher Education. The Secretary will review the petition, post it for public comment, and consider recommendations from the New Jersey Presidents’ Council before issuing a license that can last up to three years. The goal is to ensure program quality, financial stability, and that new offerings meet a real need without harming existing New Jersey schools.
