This bill aims to grant priority course registration to undergraduate student parents attending institutions of higher education in New Jersey. Specifically, it stipulates that students who are residents of the state and are parents or legal guardians of children under 18 years of age will be eligible for priority registration, provided that the institution already offers such a benefit to other undergraduate students. The priority registration process will follow the same procedures as those used for other groups currently receiving priority, such as student-athletes and students with disabilities.

Additionally, the bill mandates that institutions notify potentially eligible students about their priority registration status before each academic semester's registration period. This initiative seeks to enhance access to education for student parents, recognizing their unique challenges and the need for flexible scheduling to accommodate their responsibilities. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
