“Bergen introduced me to a whole new world of possibilities and cultures. It was at a Bergen where I started seeing people like me who were also aper their own dreams. That in itself was inspirational.”
-Diego Garces
Bergen Community College alum

“There were so many opportunities and phenomenal experiences as an undergraduate that opened doors and lead to my career as a molecular technologist — that stepping stone was everything.”
-Cassandra Bundalian
Rowan College of South Jersey alum

“As a non-traditional student who just immigrated to the country, I had no idea where to start and how to pursue my goals. RVCC gave me the opportunity to visualize my dreams and provided me with tools to achieve them. By the time I graduated from RVCC, I was more than ready to face any challenges at a four-year school and beyond that.”
-Faranak Aminifar
Raritan Valley Community College alum

“Middlesex County College was the right decision for me because I needed a second chance at academics after I did not put enough effort in during high school. MCC gave me the chance to prove that I can be an outstanding student, and allowed me to open many doors that would not have been available otherwise.”
-Stephen A. Makwinski
Middlesex College alum
