Since 1950, Shasta College has served the residents of Northern California with outstanding programs of education and public service. Following this proud tradition we are pleased to offer this web site as a navigational tool for information about today's breadth of programs, the people and facilities which make them possible, as well as plans for continued growth and development.

Student Success is the overriding goal of all aspects of Shasta College. We welcome students of all ages and backgrounds-those close to their home college as well as those from other parts of the U.S. and other nations around the world. Shasta College is accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.

Our Website is designed with the diverse needs of students in mind, whether you are seeking information for first time enrollment with us, are currently enrolled or are a former student keeping up with new developments. The Website is also intended as a resource for the general public, other colleges, businesses and agencies with which we are linked in the new global information age.

Finally, I want to thank you for your interest in Shasta College.  We are proud of our high ranking among California Community Colleges for the rate of student success in preparing for university transfer as well as our many strong programs leading to employment and career success at the certificate and associate degree levels. Our growing Distance Education program with entire courses offered over the Internet is our latest development in continually seeking to offer the most up-to-date curriculum and methods of instruction possible. Best wishes to you from all of us at Shasta College! GO Knights!!
