The Seattle Community Colleges consists of three separate campuses spread throughout the city of Seattle. When students opt to attend the Seattle Community Colleges, they put themselves in the position of choosing from more than 1,900 courses. It's important to note, however, that each of these colleges offers the same opportunities and excellence with programs such as continuing education, adult basic education, professional-technical training, and distance learning.

Whether students attend Seattle Central Community College, South Seattle Community College, or North Seattle Community College, they'll find that college transfer programs are offered. These programs allow students to take their two years of course study at the community college level, and transfer them to a traditional four-year degree-granting institution.

In addition to its colleges, the Seattle Community Colleges includes Seattle Vocational Institute, a post-secondary institution offering programs in fields such as phlebotomy, computer-based accounting, dental assisting, Cosmetology, and medical assisting. The Seattle Community Colleges also provides high school students with the ability to earn college credits before graduation. These Washington colleges also help individuals to either complete their high school education or earn a GED.
