School Notes
With over 130 degree and certificate programs, Camden County
College is one of the nation's fastest growing two-year colleges.
We provide convenient, high quality and affordable education with a
commitment to lifelong learning, job training and enrichment for
adults of all ages. Camden County College is three distinct
campuses (Blackwood, Camden, and Cherry Hill) with a common
mission. That mission was launched when Camden County College
purchased what had been Mother of the Savior Seminary – along with
the 320-acre tract of land surrounding it – early in 1967. By
September of that year, the first class of Camden County College
students was taking courses on the Blackwood Campus. Camden County
College serves an enrollment of more than 30,000 credit students
and thousands more non-credit students each year. Programs cover
technical fields like automotive technology and mechanical
engineering; health professions like nursing and medical coding;
and liberal arts and sciences like English and chemistry. There
also is a multitude of recreational offerings, ranging from social
dancing to computer studies. In addition, it is acknowledged
regionally as a vital resource for transfer education, customized
training and community cultural events. Because it has maintained
one of the lowest tuition rates of any college or university in the
state or region while offering such outstanding programming, the
college has come to be known as the best higher educational value
in the Delaware Valley.
No matter where you choose to go to college you'll have to take some kind of standardized test. The GRE is often required for graduate programs, but it may also benefit your community college application.
Education becomes more expensive with each passing year so it is important to make smart use of your student loans and to minimize your debt while you are in school whenever possible.
