There is a bill under consideration in the NJ state legislature that would restore state funding for veterinary education. If it passes, then NJ residents would get reserved slots and in-state tuition at out-of-state vet schools, as they did in the past. In return, they would be required to practice in NJ after graduation (18 months of practice for every 12 months of educational support).
There is no guarantee whatsoever that the bill will pass, but it might be something to keep an eye on.
