Georgian Court University is the new academic home for the working adult online students from Marygrove College in Michigan, beginning October 2017.

The fully online bachelor’s degree program is offered through Vcamp360, GCU’s new online learning partner, and is another example of how Georgian Court is meeting the needs of non-traditional college students, including adult online students.

GCU President Joseph R. Marbach, Ph.D., explains, “Over the past year, Georgian Court University has seen a large growth in university partnerships. Now, our latest online learning model, Vcamp360, will help us to continue to grow to new heights and offer students another avenue of quality, higher education.”

Adult Online Students Get Quality Instruction, Rich Academic Experiences

Over the last 12 months, GCU has expanded partnership agreements with Brookdale Community College, Cumberland County College, Mercer Community College, and a range of public and private high schools. Georgian Court’s program offerings include a mix of in-person and virtual courses, but increasingly, students are eager to take online classes.

Georgian Court University Dean of Admissions Justin G. Roy adds, “We are truly happy that these online adult students will be studying at Georgian Court University. Even though they are not physically on our Lakewood campus or at either of our two satellite locations in New Jersey (GCU@Hazlet and GCU@Cumberland), they can enjoy the same benefits that these students get—such as experienced, caring faculty and career services for life.”
