Rich History. Strong Values.

Sierra College offers more than 120 degrees and certificates, plus distance learning, noncredit courses, and community education. We are also one of only four community colleges nationwide to have an Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI).

Graduation was most memorable at Sierra College because I felt like I accomplished what I wanted to do even through all the obstacles I faced.
