Brookdale/TCNJ Residential Partnership

Experience the benefits of living on and engaging with an active college campus at The College of New Jersey (TCNJ) in Ewing, NJ, while taking classes with Brookdale professors to earn your associate degree.

This program offers a clear educational pathway for students to complete 30 credits with Brookdale Community College in their first year at community college tuition rates, and then seamlessly transfer to TCNJ as a sophomore to ultimately earn a bachelor’s degree.

This unique arrangement allows Brookdale students to fully immerse themselves in residential life on TCNJ’s Ewing campus, enjoying access to a wide range of essential student services, including dining, the fitness center, recreational spaces, intramural sports, student organizations, and the R.
