Essex County College will host a pair of Saturday Open House events for prospective students this Fall. The Open Houses are set for:
- Sept. 28, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., at the College’s new West Essex campus, 730 Bloomfield Ave. in West Caldwell
- Oct. 19, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., at the Newark campus, 303 University Ave.
“Our open house is the perfect opportunity to get a sense of Essex County College and learn about what we have to offer. Prospective students will be able to get a campus tour, meet with faculty and staff and ask questions about financial aid, campus activities and clubs,” said Dr. Renee Ojo-Ohikuare, executive director of Enrollment Management and Services.
Prospective students who attend the Open House will have their $30 application fee waived. If qualified, they will receive instant admission and express registration services. Transfer students will receive credits-earned evaluation. Information on financial aid, transfer options, credit and non-credit programs will also be available.
The 10-week Fall II Semester classes begin Oct. 7. Students may also take advantage of the college’s 10-day Winter Intersession starting Dec. 26. Classes for the spring 2025 semester will begin Jan. 13, 2025.
Essex County College offers more than 50 Associate degree programs and more than two dozen Academic Certificates. Degrees may be earned in such areas as nursing and health sciences, business, computer science, engineering technologies, the humanities and the social sciences.
