Centenary University's Setting

Centenary's attractive 42‐acre campus is located in a pleasant, residential area of Hackettstown, a community of 10,000 people in Northwest New Jersey. The University's 65‐acre equestrian center is located eight miles from the main campus on scenic Schooley’s Mountain. Nearby, in town or at shopping malls, are most of the shops, services, and conveniences to meet students' personal needs. Hackettstown is also close to interstate highways, providing access to major metropolitan areas such as New York City, which is just an hour away. For recreation such as skiing or boating, the scenic Pocono Mountains are less than 30 minutes from campus, and the New Jersey Shore and its many beaches are within an easy drive.
