Allows military member to qualify for resident tuition rate at county college.

New Jersey S1006 allows military members and their dependents to qualify for resident tuition rates at county colleges.

New Jersey S1006 ensures that United States military personnel and their dependents living in New Jersey and attending a county college in their county of residence or station are charged the county resident tuition rate. This change addresses the current situation where many military members and their dependents, due to maintaining out-of-county or out-of-State addresses, do not qualify for the lower resident tuition rate at their local county college. The bill aims to provide a tuition benefit similar to that available at public institutions of higher education.
