Bergen Community College: Summer Vibes For College Students, Kids And Teens

Press release from Bergen Community College:

March 11, 2024

Bergen’s summer classes begin in May.

The summer college schedule – ideal for students home from four-year institutions and those seeking to accelerate their graduation – features multiple options and start dates. Sessions range from six- to-twelve weeks, with the first beginning on Monday, May 20. All schedules include many general education courses that transfer to colleges across the country. Students from other colleges seeking to enroll at Bergen for summer classes should visit Bergen.edu/visiting.

Registration has also opened for Bergen’s fall classes, which begin in September. With three start dates offered for both in-person and Center for Online Learning classes, students have the flexibility to register for the session that best meets their needs.

Prospective students should consider filing a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Applying for financial aid helps students unlock additional tuition assistance programs that can even make Bergen tuition-free. By filing a FAFSA, students become eligible for many of the programs, including the state’s Community College Opportunity Grant, which provides a tuition-free Bergen experience for many students.

Online registration for summer and fall classes will open on Monday, April 1. In-person registration will take place at the College’s three locations in Paramus (400 Paramus Road), Hackensack (355 Main Street) and Lyndhurst (1280 Wall Street West). For more information, visit Bergen.edu or attend the Thursday, April 18 new student open house from 3 to 6 p.m. at College’s main campus. RSVP at openhouse.bergen.edu.

Based in Paramus, Bergen Community College (www.bergen.edu), a public two-year coeducational college, enrolls more than 13,000 students at locations in Paramus, the Philip Ciarco Jr. Learning Center in Hackensack and Bergen Community College at the Meadowlands in Lyndhurst. The College offers associate degree, certificate and continuing education programs in a variety of fields. More students graduate from Bergen than any other community college in the state.
