Contractual Rates
Courses may be offered by contract to public service agencies such as police departments, fire departments, public school districts, municipal and county governments, and other public service organizations based on mutually agreed rates. Courses may be offered at flat fees for business and industry through the Division of Continuing Education. Also, per contract, the College may waive certain fees for students participating under Senior Option agreements. Residents of Hunterdon County are assessed in-county tuition.
US Veterans
Veterans, their spouses, and dependents will be assessed at in-county rates.
Senior Citizen Discount
Non-matriculating senior citizens are eligible for a waiver of tuition in credit classes on a space-available basis after minimum enrollment thresholds are met. This discount does not apply to programs with clinical components (Medical Assisting or Nursing) as a student must be matriculated to enroll in the program. Beginning in the Spring 2022 semester, non-matriculated senior citizens in UAS courses will be subject to a discounted $150 tuition charge per course in addition to applicable course fees and the per credit fees.

Chargeback
