County College of Morris (CCM), the #1 community college in New Jersey, according to SmartAsset’s 2025 study of the Best Community Colleges in the U.S., announces that registration for the Winterim and Spring 2026 semesters is now open. Each of these sessions at CCM enables students to start or further their academic journey, from learning to earning, with an affordable, career-focused education.
Winterim courses begin on Monday, December 22, with most online in a condensed, four-week format. This accelerated option is ideal for CCM students wanting to remain on track to graduate with an associate degree in two years. Winterim is also available to New Jersey residents who attend a four-year college and wish to earn credits quickly during their school break.
The Spring 2026 semester offers close to 1,100 course options within three sessions. The traditional 15-week and Early 7-week begin on January 20, while the Late 7-week courses start on March 23.
By enrolling early, students can immediately take the next step toward a successful future, securing their place in high-demand classes and programs that align with their career goals. Whether on campus or through flexible virtual learning options, students can choose from over 100 programs, including for-college credit certificates and associate degrees, plus non-credit workforce development credentials.
To help students succeed, CCM offers scholarships and financial aid that can lead to opportunities for free college, for those who qualify, helping make the transition from classroom to career a reality. With an emphasis on providing an education that leads to meaningful careers, CCM is committed to preparing graduates for the workforce without the burden of overwhelming debt.
