Increases tuition credit amount permitted under volunteer tuition credit program.

This bill increases tuition credit amounts for volunteer firefighters and first responders in New Jersey. It raises the annual credit from $600 to $1,250 per year (capping at $5,000 total over four years) for active members of volunteer fire companies or first aid squads, plus their dependent children and spouses. To qualify, participants must agree to serve for four years in exchange for the credit, with the credit applied toward tuition at county colleges or vocational schools. The change expands financial support for families of volunteers while maintaining the existing service commitment requirement.
