What is the Premier Partnership?
The Premier Partnership is a seamless and cost-effective pathway for Camden County College students to transfer and earn their bachelor's degree from Rutgers University in Camden within two years. Students participating in the Premier Partnership can take advantage of financial incentives and campus resources at both institutions.
Rutgers–Camden transferred 100% of my credits from CCC. The process was so smooth. I like that my Rutgers-Camden classes were small and I had the chance to meet new friends.

When do I officially become a Rutgers–Camden student?
The faculty are phenomenal… They led me down the right path. I was kind of floored by how awesome my professors could be, and along with the advisors at Rutgers, the professors have opened up a world that I didn’t realize that I had access to.

Rutgers at Camden County College benefited me academically because we had smaller classes, so it was more interaction with the professors, and I was able to reach out to them if necessary.
