County College of Morris and Ramapo College of New Jersey Strengthen Partnership with New 2+2 Transfer Agreement County College of Morris and Ramapo College of New Jersey Strengthen Partnership with New 2+2 Transfer Agreement

Guaranteed Admission for Eligible CCM Graduates to Continue their Education at Ramapo

County College of Morris (CCM) and Ramapo College of New Jersey have established a new transfer agreement designed to give CCM students a clear path to a bachelor’s degree from the moment they begin at CCM. Students who complete their associate degree at CCM and meet the criteria will be automatically admitted to Ramapo College (excluding Nursing) to earn a bachelor’s degree in the same or a closely related field.

“We’re rewriting how transfer works in New Jersey. Through this partnership, every credit counts toward a bachelor’s degree,” said Dr. Anthony Iacono, president of CCM. “Students no longer must wonder where they will be accepted; they now have a clearer, more seamless path to earning a four-year degree. Students knowing their next step when they start is a powerful motivator for student success.”

Dr. Cindy R. Jebb, president of Ramapo College of New Jersey, added at the ceremony, “Starting as a Titan and finishing as a Roadrunner is a seamless transfer that provides continuous support. Ramapo is the premiere public Liberal Arts college in New Jersey, and this is a perfect partnership for transfer.”

Senator Anthony Bucco added, “Students will get a great foundation at a reasonable price and then automatically transfer to a four-year. This should be the model for the future across New Jersey.”

“This is a needed program that is a good government story, because it didn’t need government,” said Assemblywoman Aura Dunn. “It was built through a strong partnership and relationship. CCM is the crown jewel of community colleges for the state of New Jersey, and we recognize it’s the model for the state.”

“What goes on inside these buildings at CCM after they are built provides industries with talent throughout the region and helps students find jobs,” said Morris County Commissioner Director Stephen Shaw. “CCM has become a hub for preparing students for careers and this is a phenomenal example of how we are doing that.”

CCM has been recognized as the Best for Transfer for community colleges in New Jersey. Applications for admission to CCM are being accepted for Spring 2027 enrollment. For more information, visit ccm.edu/admissions/.
