Seattle Central Community College

About School

Seattle Central innovates. Its coordinated studies and student service programs have won imitators nationwide. Its 10,000 students excel. Its Associates of Arts grads and transfer students match or beat the grades of four-year students at such institutions as the University of Washington. Its professional technical graduates enrich themselves and the region with jobs in high tech, health care, maritime, software, and design.

Seattle Central perches atop Capitol Hill at the very heart of Seattle, the city that gave the world 747s, REI, Jimi Hendrix, Grunge, Windows 98, and a rebirth of café culture. No Northwest community college embraces a richer mix of cultures, lifestyles, ages, and nationalities. Its halls ring with the accents of Asia, Africa, Europe, and all the Americas.

Seattle Central is accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities,* an institution accrediting body recognized by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation and the U.S. Department of Education. It is also a member of the League for Innovation, a prestigious group of community colleges nationwide who have been selected for membership based on education excellence.
