91���� and Mercer County Community College (MCCC) recently finalized an agreement in which Rider will provide room and board services for MCCC students on its Lawrenceville, New Jersey, campus. MCCC is the first county community college in the state to offer students the option of a residential campus experience.

The agreement provides MCCC students with a specialized rate on room and board at Rider, which can continue for up to two additional years if the student transfers to Rider upon successfully completing an associate degree from MCCC.

"We are proud to offer competitive room and board rates as well as other benefits to neighboring students at Mercer County Community College," says Rider President Gregory G. Dell’Omo, Ph.D. “For those that choose to continue their educational journey at Rider after completing their associate degree, they will already be fully embedded within our welcoming and vibrant community."

MCCC students who take advantage of Rider’s residential living program will benefit from the use of the University’s facilities, such as Moore Library, the Schimek Family Fitness Center, the 91���� Bookstore, all dining and food service venues, the student health center, on-campus parking and shuttle service for pre-scheduled routes.

“Our new agreement with Rider allows us to offer students a valuable community college experience enriched with residential housing, plus a clear path toward a bachelor’s degree from a leading New Jersey university,” said MCCC’s President Deborah E. Preston, Ph.D. “This collaboration will open a wealth of opportunities for students, including those from other counties, states and countries.”

The program is open to current and prospective students enrolling at MCCC for the fall 2023 semester and beyond. For more information on the housing agreement between MCCC and 91����, including how to take advantage of this opportunity, please visit  and 91���� housing webpages.
