For the second year in a row, Ocean County College will not increase student tuition, the college announced this week. The OCC Board of Trustees voted unanimously at its last meeting to maintain a rate of $175 per credit for the 2023 academic year. President Jon H. Larson said the continuing tuition freeze will help in “expanding accessibility and affordability for students.”

“We are very proud to be able to do this,” OCC Board Chair Jerry J. Dasti remarked.
