Good start
KCC offers a solid educational foundation. With an emphasis on student service and a collegewide commitment to educational excellence, KCC offers an ideal environment for learning.
If earning a bachelor's degree is your goal, KCC is the right choice for your first two years of college. More than 60% of KCC students plan to transfer to a four-year college or university. Typically, KCC students who transfer to four-year colleges and universities earn higher GPAs at the four-year school than the students who began there as freshmen.
KCC offers transfer programs designed to fulfill the general education requirements and some prerequisites for a bachelor's degree at a senior institution.
KCC offers more than 25 occupational programs that can prepare you to enter the job market for the first time, help you upgrade your current job skills or retrain to enter a new career field. Our degree programs have earned recognition and distinction among area employers. Two of the area's largest employers, Riverside HealthCare and Provena St. Mary's Hospital, actively recruit our graduates for employment.
