Beginning this fall, Ocean County College will bundle books and electronic course materials, as well as college and student fees, into the total cost of tuition. “This new tuition structure will save students a significant amount of time, money and energy,” the college anticipates.

“In fall 2019, the average full-time OCC student paid more than $550 for books and electronic course material. Under the new model, students will save more than 50 percent,” the college noted.
