Treasure Valley Community College



650 College Blvd.
Ontario, OR 97914


Treasure Valley community college is dedicated to providing quality lifelong learning and cultural opportunities in response to the needs of the communities within available resources. Classes at the Oregon Community College were originally conducted at Ontario high school during the late afternoon and evening hours. Treasure Valley Community College celebrated its first graduation ceremony the following spring when students enrolled in the one-year Licensed Practical nursing program completed their studies.

Beginning with a solitary building, Treasure Valley Community College moved to its present location in the fall of 1965. Several other buildings were added during the next year and today the campus houses 13 major buildings.

Treasure Valley Community College has grown from an enrollment of several hundred students, to one of several thousand annually. Currently, more than 12,000 students attend classes each year, either on a full-time or part-time basis.

Growth, however, has not altered the basic concept under which Treasure Valley Community College was founded. The oregon community college is still dedicated to high quality, up-to-date instruction; typically a low student/instructor ratio; effective low cost education; and a pleasant college atmosphere. Treasure Valley Community College continues to grow and change to meet the needs of both its students and the community it serves.
