Registration opens October 18

The Camden County College Board of Trustees has approved a tuition rate of $99 per credit for the Spring 2022 Semester. The $99 rate is the lowest in the region and applies to in-county and out-of-county students taking courses in-person and online. The ability of institutional Federal CARES Act Higher Education Emergency Relief Funding has made it possible for CCC to offer this one-time benefit to students.

Registration for the Spring 2022 Semester opens on October 18, 2021. CCC is offering a full schedule of in-person and online courses this spring, including for-credit lectures, workforce development, and noncredit courses. CCC offers the largest selection of degree and certificate programs, most available transfer options, and the lowest tuition in the region. Students are encouraged to register early for the best selection.

“If the cost of higher education is the reason you haven’t pursued your academic goals, we want to remove that barrier. Our goal for our students is zero college debt, and it can be done,” said CCC President Donald A. Borden. “The best part is that this rate applies to in-person and online courses. The choice is yours.”

In order for every student to achieve a college education, CCC offers affordable tuition and fees, federal and state financial aid options, work-study programs, and a variety of payment plans. The availability of CARES III Grants can also provide help paying for education-related expenses such as food, housing, and technology needs, as well as or in addition to childcare, medical, and other qualifying expenditures.

The $99 per credit rate excludes Real Estate (FIN) and Center for Cultural Engagement (IDY) coursework. International student tuition is adjusted to $172 per credit.

The IRS form 1098-T (Tuition Statement) is issued for each student enrolled and for whom a reportable transaction is made. Per IRS mandate, beginning in tax year 2018, CCC reports payments received for qualified tuition and related expenses, and no longer reports amounts billed for qualified tuition and fees. For a payment to be reportable, it must relate to qualified tuition and related expenses billed during the same calendar year. Amounts paid will be limited to the amount of qualified tuition and related expenses billed within the same calendar year. Please note that qualified tuition/expenses are billed on the day that a student registers, which may have been in 2019 for spring 2020 and in fall 2020 for spring 2021. The form is available on the college website through MyCCC Portal. Students do not have to be currently enrolled to access their Self-Service account. Students who do not remember their password, may contact the Help Desk at 856-227-7200 x4900. To access the form, log into MyCCC portal, go to Payment Center through Self Serve or WebAdvisor, Under Financial Information tab, click on View My 1098-T Forms, then select the year you wish to view.

(Blackwood, NJ) – Camden County College President Donald A. Borden announced that most fall 2020 for-credit, workforce development, and noncredit courses will be offered online or remotely, with many nursing, health sciences, lab, and studio courses offered in-person subject to state approval and adherence to safety protocols recommended by the health care community.

“As we continue to monitor COVID-19 and its impact on College operations, we remain acutely aware of how the pandemic will affect campus re-entry and fall 2020 semester instruction.” Borden said. “Our primary responsibility is to ensure the health and safety of our students, faculty, staff and community members as we gradually reintegrate onto our campuses and instructional sites. Public safety and security measures, including CDC standards for access, wellness monitoring, and social distancing will guide our fall teaching strategy.”

Following an announcement from Governor Murphy permitting phased re-entry for higher education, the College continues to prepare instructional plans for the fall semester. A Return to Campus task force is actively developing an array of re-entry strategies. Among contingency planning is a Curriculum and Instruction subgroup comprised of Academic Affairs faculty and administrators. The task force has explored alternative teaching approaches from various perspectives including space, classroom and laboratory resources, and how class meetings could be safely and effectively managed in the fall.

“Ultimately, unrestricted face-to-face instruction for lecture course sections is not achievable for the fall 2020 semester, even with carefully-staged sequencing of students, rotating class meeting days and times, and essential social distancing and sanitation protocols.” Borden said. “The burden placed on students, faculty members, facilities personnel, housekeeping, and our Public Safety staff would prove not only unmanageable, but unsafe.”

For the fall 2020 semester, all lecture course sections will be offered in an online modality. Those courses containing both lecture and lab instructional components will convert to a hybrid
course modality, allowing for limited in-person instruction in keeping with the Governor’s plan and CDC standards.

Sequenced re-entry for in-person lab and practicum courses that could not be completed for the spring 2020 semester will have first preference when campuses reopen. A prioritized re-entry timeline for staging in-person fall lab and practicum instruction is likewise in preparation for students’ return to campus.

Because the COVID-19 pandemic continues to be fluid, re-entry details will evolve and could change. The College is prepared to reassess and readjust our approach to fall teaching modalities should circumstances dictate. Registration for the fall semester is taking place now at www.camdencc.edu/fall.
