“I cannot leave anyone out because we love that college and highly recommend it,” Sandra shared. “It is affordable and produces real results for their future.”

“I retired from Lockheed Martin and wanted to work with youth,” Mance said. “I started substitute teaching at local school districts and took an adjunct position at RCBC and liked it. A full-time position opened up, and here I am.”

“When I hire an instructor, I like to know that their focus is on the students,” Wilson said. “I get to know my students, and I do it quickly. But we also need to continue to create relationships with community employers and allow students to have direct connections with companies. One of the things that I like to do is invite guest engineers to the classroom to take over the lectures. I also plan to bring student projects to engineering societies and conventions to increase their exposure.”

“It was here that I met Professor Dave Wilson, who has guided me along this incredible path,” Schoopachevich said. “He saw my dedication and strong work ethic and sent all the different job opportunities my way. It wasn't until the second or third job offer that I was able to get an actual interview, which happened to be an intern position at none other than Lockheed Martin! I had my interview, and it went wonderfully. I am proud to say on June 28, I started at Lockheed as an intern, and on September 7, I became a full-time engineering technician for the company. I always believe everything happens for a reason, and it is the people you meet in life that also create your destiny. I am forever grateful for Professor Wilson’s goodwill and selfless determination to help a student achieve his dreams of success.”

“I went to school in Delran for most of my life, so RCBC has always been in my peripheral,” Brotz said. “I am transferring to The College of William & Mary for the spring 2022 semester, but being the oldest of five kids, it was a great affordable option for me and allows me to work full time, as well. I am taking all online classes, but all of my professors are fantastic and have made learning a very enjoyable experience!”

Whether you call it early dismissal, senior privilege, early release or any variation on those, leaving high school early provides the perfect opportunity for your student to get a head start on college. Didn’t know that was an option? It is at Rowan College at Burlington County! 

“Being Hispanic makes you work harder. You need to prove to yourself and others that you are capable enough to do what they do. When I found out I got a scholarship to Rowan College at Burlington County, the first thing that crossed my mind was ‘Why me?’. And then I looked back and remembered all my struggles, from coming to a country and leaving my family behind (just me and my kids here), to learning the language and going back to school knowing just the basics in English."

“I’m so excited to open RCBC’s Vaulted Cuisine with our students on October 6 and invite the community to join me to taste their inspired creations,” Chef Desmond Keefe, RCBC’s culinary technology program director said.

“It’s an honor to be selected among these institutions,” RCBC President Dr. Michael A. Cioce said. “Student Success is the highest of priorities at Rowan College at Burlington County and we will relentlessly pursue new and better ways to support students as they transform their lives through education.”
