New Jersey bill A323 requires non-citizen students to pay tuition for public school attendance.
The "Protecting Legally-Present Youngsters' Limited Educational Resources Act" (PLYLER Act) in New Jersey mandates that students who are not U.S. citizens, in the process of obtaining citizenship, or holding legal immigration or visa status must pay tuition to attend public schools. The bill requires boards of education to condition enrollment on documentation proving a student's citizenship status. If such documentation is not provided, the student must pay tuition.
