Ranked by U.S. News & World Report as sixth in the Best Regional Universities North category,
Ramapo College of New Jersey is sometimes mistaken for a private college. This is, in part, due
to its unique interdisciplinary academic structure, its size of approximately 6,000 students and its
pastoral setting in the foothills of the Ramapo Mountains on the New Jersey/New York border.
Established in 1969, Ramapo College offers bachelor's degrees in the arts, business, humanities,
social sciences and the sciences, as well as in professional studies, which include nursing and
social work. In addition, Ramapo College offers courses leading to teacher certification at the
elementary and secondary levels. The College also offers six graduate programs as well as
articulated programs with the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, New York
Chiropractic College, New York University College of Dentistry, SUNY State College of
Optometry and New York College of Podiatric Medicine.
