About PC

Phoenix College is more than a school - we're part of the community.

Phoenix College (PC) welcomed its first students, as one of the first higher education institutions in Maricopa County on September 13, 1920. PC's founders envisioned the College as a place of inclusion, welcoming students from all backgrounds.

Today, the College continues to be a diverse place of access and opportunity. Our focus on transformation includes building partnerships that support all members of the Phoenix community. PC is dedicated to providing access to valuable and affordable education and community services.

You play a vital role in this mission. When our community gets involved, we create a lasting impact on the future of this college and across Maricopa County. 

With over 150 degree and certificate programs, Phoenix College serves approximately 17,000 students like you each year. We work hard to prepare you for whatever your next step is — university transfer, career training, and advancement, or lifelong learning.
