A 2213 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires financial aid shopping sheet prepared by institutions of higher education and certain proprietary institutions to include information on average starting salaries of students.

This bill requires New Jersey colleges and universities to include average starting salaries for graduates of specific degree programs on their financial aid "shopping sheets." These sheets, already mandated to show costs, debt, and loan options, will now add salary data to help students compare institutions based on post-graduation earnings. The requirement applies to public/independent colleges and certain proprietary schools offering degrees. Institutions must provide this information annually to prospective students and enrolled students to aid their financial planning. The data will be organized by degree program, allowing families to evaluate potential return on investment alongside tuition costs.
