"Salem Community College was more then an academic institution for me. The advisors, professors, and staff provided me with the support and motivation I needed to not only finish my degree, but also advance my career and transfer to Wilmington University. I truly enjoyed my time at SCC and I am thankful to everyone who helped me achieve my goals!"
