| New jersey college STUDENT AND PARENT CONSUMER INFORMATION | |||||||||
The New Jersey College Student and Parent Consumer Information Act
requires each New Jersey four-year public college and university to display
on its website comprehensive information on the cost of attendance, the
graduation rates of admitted students, and the faculty of the institution.
It also requires the Secretary of Higher Education to establish the
guidelines, criteria, and format in reporting the information prepared
pursuant to the Act. The statute specifies certain required data for
inclusion and calls for the Secretary of Higher Education to create a
comparative profile of the student consumer information reports for the New Jersey Higher
Education website.
(Note: Pursuant to Governor Christie's Reorganization Plan 005-2011, The
Commission on Higher Education has been abolished, and the duties and
authorities have been transferred to the Secretary of Higher Education.)
