About the College

Founded in 1855, TCNJ is a highly selective public institution that has earned national recognition for its commitment to excellence. TCNJ emphasizes the undergraduate residential experience and offers targeted graduate programs. The College’s seven schools – The Arts and Communication; Business; Humanities and Social Sciences; Education; Science; Nursing, Health, and Exercise Science; and Engineering – offer degrees to nearly 6,800 students. The College’s distinguished faculty of 348 full-time members provides a 13 to 1 student to faculty ratio, and eighty-five percent of classes have enrollments of 30 or fewer. TCNJ’s picturesque campus is located on 289 tree-lined acres in suburban Ewing, approximately five miles from New Jersey’s state capital of Trenton, and 60 minutes from both Philadelphia and New York City. A 95 percent freshman to sophomore retention rate and a six-year graduation rate of 86 percent speak to the quality of the TCNJ experience.
For the 19th consecutive year, TCNJ was rated the No. 1 public in the category “Best Regional Universities (North)”; in U.S. News & World Report. It is ranked as one of the 75 “Most Competitive” schools in the nation by Barron’s Profiles of American Colleges and is considered a “Best Buy” in higher education by both Barron’s and Kiplinger’s Personal Finance.

In 2011-12 the College engaged in a comprehensive initiative to update the institution’s strategic plan under the leadership of President Dr. Barbara Gitenstein.
