In January 2009, PAFA signed a historic transfer agreement with Camden County College, New Jersey.[16] The "Camden Connection" allows for the transfer of liberal arts and studio classes as well as providing, on a competitive basis, for partial merit scholarships specifically for Camden County College students. Other transfer agreements are now in place with the following community college art departments:[citation needed] Community College of Philadelphia, Montgomery County Community College, Atlantic Cape Community College, and Northampton Community College.
