Descriptiontext

Ramapo College of New Jersey is a public liberal arts college founded in 1969 and located in Mahwah, New Jersey. The college operates four academic schools — Anisfield School of Business, School of Arts, Humanities and Education, School of Science, Nursing and Health, and School of Social Sciences and Social Work — offering 40+ undergraduate majors plus graduate and adult degree-completion programs. It serves approximately several thousand undergraduate and graduate students, plus transfer, international, veteran, and adult-learner cohorts, through a residential campus experience and a multi-channel admissions function.

The college's core service delivery relies on a traditional higher-education operating stack: Ellucian Cloud for web registration, Google Analytics for web measurement, and a recent adoption of Unimarket's source-to-pay suite (eProcurement+, Sourcing, and Contracts) to modernize procurement, sourcing, and contract lifecycle management. Specialty facilities include the Berrie Center for Performing and Visual Arts, the George T. Potter Library, the Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies (founded 1980), the Investigative Genetic Genealogy Center, and the Selden Rodman Gallery of Popular Arts, which houses one of the largest Haitian art collections at any U.S. academic institution.

Revenue is generated through four primary streams: tuition and fees (in-state, out-of-state, graduate), State of New Jersey appropriations, private donations and foundation grants, and auxiliary services (housing, dining, bookstore, conferences). Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via the admissions office, with specialized channels for international, transfer, veteran, and adult learners. The college reports an 87% alumni outcome rate (employed or in graduate school within one year of graduation) and 500+ internship opportunities as core value drivers, supported by brand rankings including #1 public institution in New Jersey (College Choice) and #1 residence halls in New Jersey (Niche).
