Expands Tuition Aid Grant program to part-time undergraduates in New Jersey.

The bill expands the Tuition Aid Grant (TAG) program to include part-time undergraduate students in New Jersey. Currently, only full-time students are eligible for TAG awards. The bill amends the New Jersey Statutes to include part-time students in the TAG program, ensuring they receive prorated grants based on their enrollment status. This expansion aims to provide financial assistance to part-time students who are in need and deserve the opportunity for higher education. The bill also ensures that funding for part-time grants does not reduce funding for full-time grants.
