History

Students have entered Berkeley with aspirations of career success since 1931. And while the years go by, one thing remains the same — Berkeley College's unyielding commitment to ensure that all students who enter its doors are afforded opportunities to reach their goals.

From the initial class of 50 students to the current combined student body of more than 4,000, growth continues at Berkeley College. Today, Berkeley College is convenient and accessible at campuses in New York and New Jersey. Additionally, Berkeley College Online® continues to expand as a popular alternative to the traditional classroom learning environment.

Throughout all of the changes — the addition of more students, new locations, technologies and programs — Berkeley has always maintained its primary focus on students, providing personal attention and instruction with the goal of preparing students for career success.
