Higher Education, Elevated.

Exceptional Academics

Faculty who are partners in their students’ success

TCNJ professors take the time to get to know their students, guiding them in course selection; offering real-world industry perspectives; and opening doors to research opportunities, internships, and career connections.

Courses that are more immersive

Our students typically enroll in four 4-credit courses per semester compared to their peers at other schools who tend to take five 3-credit courses. This deeper dive helps TCNJ students master the information and build stronger relationships with mentors.

Transformational learning experiences that are baked in

A TCNJ education is characterized by enriching experiences that elevate student outcomes. These opportunities can include mentored research, community-based projects, labs, and collaborative assignments. Most importantly, these experiences benefit all students from Year One; other colleges typically reserve them for juniors, seniors, honors students, or graduate students.
