Academic Schools

Tri-C has five academic schools. The schools house related credit and noncredit programs, providing clear paths to degree and career attainment.

Students are assigned to a school when they declare a major. Being part of a school gives students a sense of identity and community within the College, while also providing a home base for all their academic needs. Students receive more personalized attention, career guidance and academic support to help them stay on track and earn credentials and degrees more quickly.

Streamlined processes help them register for the classes they need and connect them with resources across the College. The academic schools bring the “feel” of a four-year school to Tri-C while immersing students in their own and adjacent academic fields, helping them clarify and refine their ambitions while building relationships and professional connections that last a lifetime.
