day by day so try back a few times. You may be surprised to find a
window of opportunity when a space becomes available. New
sections of some courses have been opened. There are also numerous
sections of many courses available at our locations at May’s Landing
and at Freehold. This year we also offer both hybrid and online
sections of many courses. BE SURE TO LOOK AT THE ENTIRE SET OF
COURSE OFFERINGS AND CHECK WITH ACADEMIC SERVICES TO INVESTIGATE
YOUR OPTIONS!!!

on class meeting dates and times. Many of your instructors have
