A 3665 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Provides that student is ineligible for State financial aid upon conviction for hazing.

This bill amends New Jersey's student financial aid law to automatically disqualify students convicted of hazing or aggravated hazing under state law (P.L.1980, c.169) from receiving state financial aid. It directly affects New Jersey college students who receive a criminal conviction for hazing incidents. The key provision removes eligibility for state aid upon conviction, regardless of other qualifications like residency or citizenship. This changes existing rules by adding hazing convictions as a specific disqualifying factor for state-funded student financial assistance.
