Expands Community College Opportunity Grant Program to include career and technical education programs at county colleges and county vocational schools.

This bill (S 802) expands New Jersey's existing Community College Opportunity Grant Program to cover tuition and fees for career and technical education programs at county vocational schools and county colleges. It directly affects adult students enrolled in these programs who meet income limits ($0-$65,000 annual adjusted gross income) and other eligibility criteria. The key mechanism adds "career and technical education" to the program’s scope, allowing students to receive grants covering costs not covered by other aid, while maintaining existing requirements like residency and academic standing. The program remains administered by the Higher Education Student Assistance Authority for student grants and the Office of the Secretary of Higher Education for college support funding.
