With a sprawling campus, beautiful facilities, accessible faculty and more than 7,000 students, DCC offers a college experience that has been compared to that of a small private college. Whether you’re starting college right after high school or are returning as an adult, you’ll find your fit at DCC and will be able to achieve your dreams. If you’re planning to pursue a bachelor’s degree, know that the majority of our students do transfer to four-year schools, and that DCC alumni go on to top colleges and universities including Cornell, RPI, Pace, NYU, Vassar, Marist and SUNY institutions. If you’d prefer to enter the workforce after completing a degree or certificate at DCC, you’ll be well prepared and sought after by employers.
