College to host open houses in November

Brookdale Community College will host open houses on Nov. 15 and 17 at 765 Newman Springs Road, Lincroft.

The Fall Open House, open to high school students, prospective college students and residents of all ages, will be held from 12-2 p.m. Nov. 15 at Brookdale’s Collins Arena. Representatives from Brookdale’s partner universities, including Georgian Court University and Rutgers University, will be available. Attendees can take guided campus tours and enjoy complimentary snacks.

The new Adult Open House, designed specifically for residents age 24 and older, will be held from 4:30-7 p.m. Nov. 17 at the Student Life Center. A range of services for working adults and former college enrollees will be available, including a personalized prior learning assessment. Attendees can learn if their work history, military service or previous classroom experience can be applied as credit toward a Brookdale degree.

At both events, visitors can meet individually with college faculty and staff and learn about Brookdale’s more than 50 degree and certificate programs. Staff will be on hand to discuss financial aid, scholarships, internship opportunities, campus clubs, employment services and career-training programs.

Parking will be available in lots 6 and 7. To register or learn more, call 732-224-1857 or visit www.brookdalecc.edu.
