Welcome to Solano Community College!
Solano Community College has been helping students from all walks of life achieve their goals since 1945. We can provide the resources you need for university transfer, job training, or personal development.
Students can complete the first two years of their bachelor's degree at a fraction of the cost of a 4-year university, and transfer as a junior with admission priority to major universities. We have transfer agreements with seven UC campuses and offer a wide selection of transferable classes. In addition, Solano Community College coordinates with Sonoma State University to offer a full bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts through our Vallejo center.
