Worth the Investment

Have you considered what an advanced degree would mean for your life and your career? In the grand scheme of things, a couple of years of hard work can result in a great deal of recognition and appreciation for your achievement, and the opportunity for advancement or even a career change. For example, according to the National Center for Education Statistics, in 2019, the median earnings of those with a master’s or higher degree were $70,000, some 26 percent higher than the earnings of those with a bachelor’s degree ($55,700).

The Value of a Centenary Degree

Since 1995, Centenary has distinguished itself as a leader in graduate education in New Jersey. We believe we provide exceptional value to our students through:

• Affordability: Our staff works with you to identify available loans and scholarships. We also offer tuition discounts for law enforcement officers and other government employees as well as discounts through our corporate partnerships.

• Quality: Our programs are accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. For our Business and Education programs, we hold additional accreditations through the International Assembly for Collegiate Business Education (IACBE) and the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP).

• Results: Centenary annually enrolls more than 1,000 adult and graduate students. In the U.S., the median annual wage for full-time workers with a master’s degree is 21 percent higher than those who hold just a bachelor’s degree, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
