Whether you are a first-year student in one of our transfer degree programs or enrolled in one of our career or vocational programs, we are here to assist you in your journey. We believe that education is the foundation to building strong families, resilient communities, and a skilled workforce. We want you to experience our high-quality academic programs, as well as, have the opportunity to explore nearly 20 student clubs that provide formal and informal forums for areas of special interest. You are also encouraged to be active in your student government which is an integral part of VVC’s participatory governance process.
VVC is the 2023 recipient of the John W. Rice Award in Student Success. The college was selected by the California Community Colleges Board of Governors to receive the award because of our relentless commitment to setting the standard in advancing equitable placement goals and objectives for all students. Out of all 116 community colleges statewide, VVC leads the way in seeing the greatest improvements in all students completing gateway transfer-level English and math. Our staff stays committed to make your experience at Victor Valley College the most productive it can be. VVC’s distinguished faculty hold credentials from many of the country’s leading colleges and universities. We take pride knowing that our faculty come to us from many diverse backgrounds and experiences, yet they share one very important trait – a commitment to excellence in teaching and Student Success.
VVC continues to remain the educational hub for the High Desert, expanding and growing our campus. We’ve opened a new multicultural center for our diverse student body and a new Rams Café. In summer 2024 we anticipate opening a state-of-the-art sports stadium and educational event center which will serve as an exhibition hall for seminars, important meetings, special events and conventions.
Whichever program you have decided to pursue at Victor Valley College you have taken the first step to a bright future and a world of opportunities.
Education is the path towards unlocking our fullest potential, and at Victor Valley College, we are committed to providing our students with the tools and resources they need to achieve their academic and career goals. We call it Student Success.
