From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The New Jersey County Colleges is a system of 18public community colleges, encompassing more than 60 campuses in theU.S. state ofNew Jersey.^[1]^[2] As of 2019^[update], there are 18 county colleges statewide; this reflects the fact that each college serves one of New Jersey's 21 counties, except forAtlantic Cape Community College,Raritan Valley Community College, andRowan College of South Jersey, each of which serves two counties.

In 2003, formergovernor James McGreevey created the New Jersey Community Colleges Compact, with Executive Order No. 81, as a statewide partnership to enable cooperation between the colleges and various state departments.^[3]^[4] The compact is administered by the New Jersey Council of County Colleges, which makes recommendations on the deployment and use of county college resources. The council also provides educational and training materials to the college administrations to further their goals.^[1] The council was founded in 1989 under statute 18A:64A-26 of the New Jersey legislature to promote the advancement of the county community colleges of New Jersey.^[4]^[5] In 2003, the state further established the Community College Consortium for Workforce and Economic Development as a single point of contact for employers looking for skilled workers in New Jersey.^[1]

The county colleges of New Jersey represent 56% of all undergraduate students in the state and offer studies in 1,700degree and certificate programs.^[2] Reflecting long-term trends nationwide, the male-to-female ratio of students in the system is 41% male to 59% female, and 48% of students are over the age of 24.^[2] Overall, the system enrolls more than 350,000 students each year on campuses that range in size from 1,300 students atSalem Community College to over 15,000 students atBergen Community College.

Not all of the county colleges were founded by the State of New Jersey; the oldest county college in New Jersey,Union County College, was founded in 1933 by theFederal Emergency Relief Administration as Union County Junior College; it operated as a private college from 1936 to 1982, and merged with the publicly operated Union County Technical Institute in 1982 to become the current public institution.^[6]
