ADMISSIONS New Jersey’s community colleges are "open door" institutions that admit all high school graduates, those holding graduate equivalency diplomas (GED), and all other persons 18 years of age or older who have the ability to benefit from post secondary education. The student applying for admission to Ocean County College is required to submit an application and credentials to the Office of Registration and Records as early as possible during the 6 months immediately prior to entrance. Applications will be considered when all the necessary steps have been completed. The candidate is responsible for the completion of all admission requirements. These are listed below. 1. If a student attended a secondary school, an official transcript from the secondary school showing subjects completed and grades earned is requested. If the student is a high school graduate, the transcript must include the date of graduation. A State General Education Diploma (GED) may be submitted as evidence of high school graduation. Note: Financial aid programs require students to submit a high school transcript. 2. A completed application for admission. Application forms may be obtained from the high school guidance counselor, from the college Office of Registration and Records or from the college website. An online application for admission is available on our website. All information to be filled in by the candidate should be completed and returned to the Office of Registration and Records. 3. Official transcripts forwarded to the Office of Registration and Records from any college previously attended. 4. A medical examination by a physician is required only of those individuals accepted into the nursing program. 5. Proof of residency.

Proof of residence must be satisfactory to college officials. In order to qualify as a resident, an adult must have established legal, permanent domicile within the county for 1 year prior to the date of registration.

Applicants for the NURSING PROGRAM are required to take the American College Test (ACT) or the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT). This requirement is waived if the applicant has a Bachelor’s degree from a regionally accredited college or university and successful completion of A&P I & II with a minimum of a “C” within the last ten years or have a 2.7 college GPA which includes the General Education component of the Nursing Program. registering for courses The registration dates and course schedules for each term are available on our website or from the Registration and Records Office.

Part time students can obtain advising if they choose, but it is not required. Completed registration forms can be processed in the Registration and Records Office. WebAdvisor WebAdvisor is an online service for students that allows students to view semester schedules, check grades, register for courses (if approved), access transcripts, pay bills, and run program evaluations to detail exactly what courses are required for a particular degree. No login is required to view the semester schedules. WebAdvisor is available via Ocean Cruiser, our college portal.

This law requires all students born after 1956, who are matriculated in a degree program, and who did not attend an elementary or secondary school in New Jersey, to provide the college with a Certificate of Immunization.
