REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingThis is the most advanced in curriculum to only be a community college! Its one of the most flexible and convenient schools with advisors that are always available to answer any of my questions! The library has an excellent amount of books to choose from and the quiet space is even better. The bookstore could be a little bigger but overall it has all that a student could ever ask for. The professors are always available for questioning as well. Its a great school to consider.

Gabriella from Marlton, NJ
Burlington County College is a great option for both students just trying to get an associates and then go off to work but also students transferring later to a 4year school. The community college helps you find the exact major you want to pursue while getting college credits that are easy to transfer and way cheaper than a university. Plus you get your own bed and shower!

If I had to rate Burlington County College in three sentences I would give them a five star. I know personally nobody wants to go yo a community college, but in reality it help you out alot. It saves you money and distance if something was to happen to kinda know somebody to help you out.

I feel like i have learned alot at BCC. The teachers for the most part are knowledgeable in there subjects. I have been able to become interested in areas of study that i never thought i would be, because the teachers know what they are doing and make it as interesting as they can.
