Students Learn, Belong and Succeed at Bergen
PARAMUS, N.J – Bergen Community College will welcome prospective students and their families to the annual spring open house on Thursday, April 18 from 3 to 6 p.m. at the institution’s main campus at 400 Paramus Road in Paramus.
The open house provides an opportunity for students to learn about Bergen’s degree, certificate and continuing education programs and to meet the faculty who teach the courses. Bergen offers programs in areas such as aviation, business and culinary arts, with a Center for Online Learning where students can earn a degree entirely online in one of six fields.
Meanwhile, prospective students can also explore Bergen’s vibrant campus environment that includes more than 50 student clubs and organizations and holistic student support services. These resources and activities contribute to the institution’s highly engaged student body that participates in Phi Theta Kappa, the honor society of two-year colleges, LatinxCEO, an entrepreneurship development organization, and the student government association.
Designed to help ensure students can remain enrolled and succeed in their goals of earning a college education, the open house will offer workshops on financial aid and programs such as the Community College Opportunity Grant that offers a tuition-free Bergen experience for qualified students. Bergen also offers a nationally recognized tutoring center, experiential learning facilities such as the Health Professions Integrated Teaching Center and a one-stop student service center recognized by the federal government as a best practice in supporting student success.
