New Jersey State Tax has a deduction for Higher Education Tuition.
From Turbo Tax 2022: New Jersey Institute of Higher Education Tuition
If you, your spouse, or your dependent enroll in or attend a New Jersey institution of higher education, you can deduct up to $10,000 for tuition costs paid during the year.
NJ State tax web site states that the tuition has to be paid to an in-State institution of higher education. Does "in-State" mean only Public Universities, or any university physically located in the State?
What colleges fall under New Jersey Institute of Higher Education? Are Private Universities such as Princeton University qualify as New Jersey Institute of Higher Education?
