About

Tacoma Community College has served the community since 1965. More than 500,000 students 已经获得了转到四年制大学或专业技术学校的副学士学位 certificate to embark on a new career. Others have come to TCC to learn English, get high school and college credentials or start fresh. Many of our students are adult learners, or people who seek a better life and career through a college education. At TCC, our doors are always open and accessible to anyone who wishes to learn.

Much has changed since we opened the first college building in 1965. But our spirit has remained the same. At TCC, we are welcoming, supportive and committed to student success. This spirit is an important piece of us that continues to lead us into the future.
