About Pillar College

Somerset Christian College, now known as Pillar College (changed in 2013), is a private evangelical Christian college, formerly owned and operated by Pillar of Fire International, a religious denomination. The college was located in the Zarephath section of Franklin Township in Somerset County, New Jersey. Due to the flood caused by Hurricane Irene in 2011, the Zarephath campus buildings have been condemned, and all classes met at Stonecrest Church in Warren, New Jersey. The decision was made to leave the condemned Zaraphath site and relocate the main campus and administrative offices to the Newark location. A new extension site was opened in Somerset near the original college in February 2013. Pillar College is the only accredited evangelical college in the state of New Jersey.
