About Westchester Community College
Westchester Community College, which recently celebrated its 75th anniversary, is a non-residential suburban institution 30 miles north of New York City. In 1957, the County of Westchester bought the
360-acre John Hartford estate in Valhalla and designated 218 acres for the community college. WCC is committed to helping its diverse student population receive a college education. As a Minority and Hispanic Serving Institution, the College has a student body that reflects the diversity of Westchester County: 50% of students are above age 22, 60% are first-generation students, 69% of students are non- white, 49% attend part-time, and 61% of students receive federal, state, or institutional financial aid. In addition to its traditional academic coursework, the College is committed to providing workforce education for “middle skill” employment opportunities in industries that require at least an Associate degree and provides family-sustaining wages and opportunities for professional growth.
