Requires county college to notify graduating high school students of acceptance into local county college.
This bill requires New Jersey county colleges to automatically notify graduating high school students in their county of acceptance into the college. The notification must be sent by December 1 and include instructions on how to enroll, register for classes, and access financial aid and support services, while eliminating the need for a separate application or application fee. Although students receive an offer of admission, the bill clarifies that this does not guarantee placement in a specific major or specialized program. Additionally, the legislation mandates the creation of guidelines for identifying eligible students and requires an annual report on the program's impact, including data on enrollment and out-of-state migration.
