Grants priority course registration to certain student parents attending institutions of higher education.
This bill grants priority course registration to undergraduate student parents at New Jersey institutions of higher education that already offer priority registration to other student groups. To qualify, a student must be a New Jersey resident and the parent or legal guardian of a child under 18 years of age. The legislation requires schools to notify eligible students before each semester's registration period and to process their registration using the same procedures as other priority groups, such as student-athletes or military veterans.
