“These incentives were created with three of our favorite kinds of students in mind: new students, current students and those who are coming back after an absence,” Rowan College at Burlington County President Dr. Michael A. Cioce said. “As we look forward to a bigger return to campus in the fall, we’re excited to offer new benefits to students who are taking control of their future and making education their priority.”
