What actually gets reported at Camden County College
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 3 Clery Act categories here: Aggravated Assault, Burglary and Fondling.
The remaining 8 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Arson, Incest, Motor Vehicle Theft and Murder / Non-Negligent Manslaughter. Under the Clery Act that zero is an affirmative report that nothing in the category occurred, not an absence of data, which is why the table below lists those rows rather than dropping them.
Counts describe incidents reported under the Clery Act for the on-campus geography. Reporting practice varies between institutions, so counts are not a direct measure of relative safety.

Cost context
Where Camden County College sits on price and outcomes
At $5,996, Camden County College's reported average net price is among the lowest reported prices among 129 New Jersey colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $18,173.
- $5,996
- average net price
- $18,173
- New Jersey median
- 2.8×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $7,635
- reported income-bracket spread
Aid here is steeply income-scaled. Families reporting under $30,000 of income record a net price of $4,582, while those above $110,000 record $12,217 - roughly 2.7 times as much. A published average of $5,996 therefore describes very few families well; the bracket nearest your own income is the more useful figure.
Six years after enrolling, the median former student who received federal aid reports $32,960 - about 5.5 times one year of the reported net price here. On that ratio the cost is recovered quickly. Only 32% complete within six years. Most students here do not finish, which is the single most important number on this page for anyone weighing the cost.
Average net price reflects grant and scholarship aid for aided students, not a personal offer. Earnings cover former students who received federal aid; neither measure predicts an individual's outcome.
