A 1932 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes New Jersey Student Educator Tuition Remission Program.

This bill establishes the New Jersey Student Educator Tuition Remission Program to help reduce the cost of teacher certification. It provides tuition coverage for eligible students completing clinical practice in approved educator preparation programs at public New Jersey colleges or universities. Students must be NJ residents enrolled full-time in an approved program, meet citizenship/financial aid criteria, and complete required steps for clinical practice. The program covers up to two semesters of eligible tuition expenses, with repayment required only if a student is dismissed, disqualified from teaching, or becomes ineligible for certification - though no repayment is needed for withdrawals due to illness or family emergencies.
