The Gateway to College program at Camden County College will hold its graduation ceremony for 84 students from 11 high schools throughout Camden County.
As a dual credit program, Gateway to College provides a second chance for students who have fallen behind or have dropped out due to personal hardships. The program allows students to earn their high school diploma while also gaining college credit.
“For many of our graduates, Gateway is far more than a program,” said President Pugh-Bassett. “It is an opportunity to overcome obstacles, redefine their paths, and achieve an important milestone: earning their high school diploma.”
Members of the 2026 graduating class have persevered through the challenges of parenthood, housing instability, homelessness, mental health, and more. Despite these obstacles, they completed all necessary requirements to graduate through the Gateway program.
