Did you know that nearly half of all college students in the United States begin their college experience at a community college? In fact, each September, over 1,200 high school graduates from the county and surrounding areas enroll at Westchester Community College!
Each student has a special reason for attending the college. Your son or daughter may want a solid start on the way to a bachelors degree, or may seek an education which leads them directly to a career. Whatever their goal is, Westchester Community College can serve as the bridge to their success.
With more than fifty associate degree and certificate programs, we offer students a wide range of academic opportunities. These programs, combined with a full range of counseling and advisement, academic support, and career and transfer services, provide students with the solid foundation that they need to reach their individual goals.
Our students take great pride in their involvement outside of the classroom through their participation in dozens of student clubs, a wide variety of cultural events, and intercollegiate sports teams. From Philosophia, our Honors Program club, to the Student Senate or the Bowling team, there is something for everyone at Westchester Community College.
As parents, you play an important role in assisting your son or daughter in their college search process. This brochure will answer some of the questions you may have about your community college. I invite you to contact the Office of Admissions at admissions@sunywcc.edu to learn more about the college and to arrange a visit to the campus.
Best wishes to you and to your child as you continue the college search process.
Sincerely,
Teresita B. Wisell
Director of Admissions
