\n

The average cost of an education is going up again. And no, that expensive degree doesn’t guarantee a great job after graduation.<\/p>\n

For those considering Atlantic Cape Community College, you\u2019ll need to dig deeper to cover a new, 6% rise in tuition and fees. This bad news comes just days after ACCC leadership cut the ribbon on a brand new, $12 million student center.<\/p>\n

In March 2017, ACCC Board of Trustees, lead by Chairman Dave Coskey and Vice Chairperson Maria Mento, approved a $37 million budget.<\/h2>\n

Coskey said the budget reflects a declining population and annual, slipping enrollment.<\/p>\n

Note: Coskey is General Manager of Longport Media, a collection of local, Atlantic City area radio stations. Maria Mento is the part-time business administrator for the City of Ventnor.\u00a0Learn More About\u00a0Ventnor’s Maria Mento Here.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

ACCC Tuition hike. Declining enrollment, the new student center, union contracts and questionable decision making have been fingered as contributors to the hike.<\/p>\n

How to fix? More \u2018aggressive marketing\u2019 says ACCC President Barbara Gabba.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In the meantime, layoff notices are going out, and ACCC will waive enrollment application fees, except for nursing which still has a strong demand.<\/p>\n

  • ACCC full-time and part-time enrollment in Fall 2015 was 6,631<\/span><\/li>\n
  • 70% of students get federal aid<\/li>\n
  • ACCC enrollment has declined 15% since 2010<\/li>\n
  • From 2015-16, a 7% decline<\/li>\n
  • Since 2006, a decline of 1,000 students<\/li>\n
  • Nov 2013: ACCC had open house for high school students. Only 63 showed up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    In other ACCC Board of Trustee news, the board approved increases in the maximum sick leave payout for unionized employees from $8,500 to $15,000.<\/p>\n
