Berkeley College
732-750-1800
An old, empty Foodtown Supermarket on Rahway Avenue found new life in 1982 when Berkeley College established a Middlesex Campus in Woodbridge. Located near the Municipal Building, across from the township's war monument and directly across from the train station, centrally located Berkeley College offers a wide variety of associates and bachelors degree programs, as well as certificate programs, some of which can be completed online. In fact, the Woodbridge campus offers all majors except for interior design. Berkeley specializes in career-focused programs, and students serve internships in their field of study. The college boasts a high placement rate for its graduates. Debra Mallamace serves as the Campus Operating Officer.
