New Jersey students enrolled in any one of the State’s 18 county colleges may be eligible for tuition-free college. Students who are enrolled in at least 6 credits per semester in Fall 2022 and/or Spring 2023 and who have an adjusted gross income of $0 -$65,000 will be considered for this state grant.
There is no separate application. If you already completed the FAFSA® or the NJ Alternative Financial Aid Application for NJ Dreamers, you are automatically being considered for this state aid.
If you are a New Jersey Dreamer, complete the NJ Alternative Financial Aid Application.
The New Jersey Financial Aid Management System (NJFAMS) is the primary source for you to view your financial aid status. If any information or documentation is needed to complete your application, it will be listed in NJFAMS.
