Starting your college career at Sussex and graduating with your associate degree, before transferring, will give you the Degree Advantage! Save on tuition and graduate with little or no debt.
Many successful people credit their associate degree as the foundation of their career achievement and the turning point in their lives.
The New Jersey Transfer Agreement guarantees your credits from a completed associate degree will transfer seamlessly to a bachelor’s degree program at any of New Jersey’s four-year colleges and universities. Receiving your associate degree before you transfer also improves the likelihood you’ll be accepted at an out-of-state university. Sussex graduates have transferred to hundreds of private colleges throughout the country. Speak with our transfer counselor to help you with the process.
