A 6296 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Amends Fiscal Year 2026 annual appropriations act to expand authorized use of grant funding for Centenary University.

Bill A6296 amends New Jersey's Fiscal Year 2026 appropriations act to change how $1.5 million in grant funding for Centenary University must be used. Currently restricted to capital improvements (like building projects), the bill removes this requirement, allowing the university to use the funds for general operational purposes instead. This change does not increase the total grant amount but expands flexibility in its allocation. The bill directly affects Centenary University by altering the permissible uses of its existing state grant.
