New Jersey County Colleges

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The State of New Jersey created a system of county colleges, starting in the 1960s, as part of an effort to provide access to a two-year community college education to residents of all of New Jersey's 21 counties. There are now 19 county colleges statewide, reflecting the fact that two of these colleges each serve students from two separate counties.
