Establishes three-year pilot program in DOE to provide certain students with information and assistance regarding federal financial aid application.

This New Jersey bill (A3878) establishes a three-year pilot program to help high school students complete the federal financial aid application (FAFSA). It requires participating school districts to provide 12th-grade students and their parents/guardians with clear guidance on FAFSA requirements, including necessary documentation, key terms (like "dependent" or "household size"), eligibility, and deadlines. Schools must offer this information through classroom instruction, counselor sessions, or parent workshops, and provide paper FAFSA forms upon request. The program mandates privacy protections for shared information and requires a final report assessing the pilot's feasibility for statewide expansion. It directly affects 12th-grade students in selected school districts across New Jersey's regions.
