NJCU’s Jacey chatbot can answer questions about admissions, financial aid, student financials, Blackboard, athletics, technical tv, and so much more. To improve communications, Jacey delivers content in an easy-to-use interactive format provided in English and 99 other languages. The Jacey chatbot provides virtual service and tv so students get the help they need anytime on any device.
