RVCC Graduates Excel at Transfer Schools

RVCC graduates are well prepared to continue their education at a four-year institution.

A recent report from the New Jersey Commission on Higher Education found RVCC graduates who transferred to NJ public colleges averaged a greater than B average in their senior year of college.

"Students who transfer from RVCC are well-prepared for continued study in a rigorous liberal arts curriculum, and come to Drew excited and ready to make the most of the resources and opportunities available to them."

Patricia Laprey
Director of Continuing Education and Special Programs
Drew University

"The practical instruction in the modern high-quality science laboratories at RVCC ensures those associate degree candidates transferring into Kean University have a firm footing as they continue their educational and scholarly pursuits, towards bachelor's and master's degrees."

"RVCC students have been highly successful at Delaware Valley College. Our research indicates that Raritan Valley students have maintained a "B" average or better in their studies at DVC. Raritan Valley Community College students have also taken advantage of the DVC merit scholarships which can average over $7,000 a year. We welcome RVCC graduates and hope that they will consider coming to DelVal to complete their bachelor's degree."

“Transfer students account for more than half of all of our new student enrollments each year. The students who enter as community college graduates are prepared for success. Our research indicates that community college graduates are highly successful students who are more likely to graduate than other types of students. Earning an associate degree prepares students for academic success as well as leadership opportunities. Many of our most successful graduates came to us from NJ Community Colleges.

Dr. Luci Nurkowski, Ed.D.
Associate Director, Transfer Admissions
Rowan University
