About
Why do almost 16,000 students choose Seattle Central College each year? We offer what they need to succeed. Top academic programs, many paths to academic transfer, career prep, and basic studies – all in one of the most vibrant neighborhoods in one of the nation’s most diverse, thriving cities.
The true strength of our college is our incredible teaching and learning environment. Our teachers are nationally known for their dedication to student success, and it shows. From the large number of our students who transfer to the University of Washington each year, to those running successful businesses, standing out in arts and music or as community leaders – we are committed to helping our students thrive in whatever they choose to do.
Seattle Central College is one of the most diverse colleges in Washington state, which is great, but what makes us most proud is that our student body is a true reflection of our community. We draw people from all walks of life who want to improve their lives.
