Speaking with Yami Ortiz-Monralvo, university center office manager, she states, “Cumberland County College has the highest level of people attaining an Associate’s Degree and the lowest level of people attaining baccalaureate degrees or higher. It’s unfortunate to be one of the only counties in New Jersey without a four-year institution. Working with our partners creates pathways for students. Coming here is great way to receive a bachelor’s or master’s without leaving the comforts of Cumberland County College. Our goal is to get you where you need to be with a quality education and workforce ready to meet the standards of your future employer, and beyond.”
Amanda Mantshongo is the representative for Wilmington University and Dr. George F. Sharp is the representative for Richard Stockton College. They play a very important role in connecting our students to a four-year degree. These partnerships provide CCC students a way to saving time and money. Not many two-year schools offer what CCC offers. If you are thinking about attending a four-year school after graduating from CCC, check out CCC’s University Center.
