education at the best price. You will receive a world-class education at a fraction of the
cost of most universities.

preparation needed to succeed in two and four-year degree programs and in your career.
SCCC has one of the highest graduation rates of community colleges in New Jersey.
4. Great things come in small packages - We offer many of the advantages of a large
institution combined with the unique benefits of a smaller college. You will not get lost in
the crowd here. Our average class size is just 20.
5. Flex your scheduling options - Balancing school, work and family can be challenging.
Choose from classes offered during the day, evening or weekend, in the traditional manner,
online or hybrid formats.

familiarity for students who don’t want to commute or live away from home.

Skylander spirit is alive and well. We offer intercollegiate competition all year long.
10. START HERE...GO ANYWHERE! We prepare you to transfer to the top colleges and
universities in New Jersey and across the nation. More than seventy percent of SCCC
graduates continue their education. Under state law, SCCC graduates with A.A. or A.S.
degrees can transfer seamlessly with junior status to a four-year public college or university
in N.J. when pursuing the same or compatible major.
