County College of Morris

What County College of Morris does

County College of Morris (CCM) is a public community college chartered by the State of New Jersey, located on a 222-acre campus in Randolph, Morris County, and serving primarily Morris County residents with regional reach across New Jersey. Founded in 1971, CCM offers more than 50 associate degree programs, an extensive catalog of certificate programs, and 25 workforce development programs organized through three academic schools: Business, Mathematics, Engineering & Technologies; Health Professions & Natural Sciences; and Liberal Arts. The institution delivers instruction through three modalities — on-campus, asynchronous online (Virtual Campus), and hybrid — supported by Blackboard LMS, the Handshake career platform (replacing JobConnect in July 2026), and integrations with the National Student Clearinghouse and NJFAMS state financial aid system.

CCM's customer base spans first-time college students, transfer students, veterans and military personnel, high school dual-enrolled learners, international non-F1 students, returning adults, and visiting students, alongside Morris County employers served through customized business training and the Center for Workforce Development. Revenue mechanics are tuition-driven on a per-credit model ($241/credit in-county, $385 out-of-county, $511 out-of-state), augmented by state and county appropriations, philanthropic grants channeled through the CCM Foundation (including a historic $1M Delta Dental grant and $150K Gilead Sciences grant), and workforce development contracts with the NJ Department of Labor. Roughly 76% of students receive financial aid averaging $8,744, and 21% qualify for the Community College Opportunity Grant covering tuition and fees. CCM's competitive position rests on its NSA/DHS National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense designation (first in NJ), 200+ transfer agreements with four-year institutions, top 1.8% national ranking among community colleges, and #1 ranking in New Jersey for community college alumni salaries. The college is currently executing two major capital projects: a $12M Center for Entrepreneurship & Culinary Science opened March 2026, and an 80,000 sq ft Center for Health Professions opening winter 2027.
