Raritan Valley Community College will host an information session on March 28 about the new Adult Learners College it is launching this fall to help older students fulfill personal or career goals.
The event, which will include information about applying to RVCC, support services designed for non-traditional students, and paying for college and financial aid options, will be held from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., March 28 in the Event Center, Room 102, at the College’s Branchburg campus.
RVCC’s Adult Learners College is designed for adults age 25 and older who want to begin or complete their college degree, explore a new career path, gain additional training, get a promotion at work, be the first in their family to attend college, or improve their English.
In addition, seven-week semesters will be offered for some programs, providing adult students with a more convenient academic schedule to help them balance work, school, and family obligations.
