Thanks to extensive partnerships with colleges and universities, students don’t just prepare for college — they experience it as part of their vocational-technical high school program.
Two- and four-year institutions in New Jersey and beyond partner with county vocational-technical schools to align curriculum and award credits for college-level academic and career courses. Thanks to strong articulation agreements with college and university partners, many students earn a semester or full year of college credits at little or no cost to families. In some cases, students graduate with an associate degree.
