The President's Message

Welcome!

Whatever your goals are, Crafton Hills College is the perfect launching point. We offer rigorous programs and personal services that allow our students to achieve their educational objectives, whether it’s to complete an associate's degree, transfer to a university for a bachelor's degree, or strengthen career skills by earning a certificate. CHC also has the distinction of being the top ranked community college in the Inland Empire for degree and certificate completion rates and course retention and success rates, with our students going on to meaningful and rewarding careers.

With more than 75 associate degrees including 25 associate degrees for transfer (ADT), CHC students have a tremendous amount of choices when it comes to areas of study. By completing an ADT, you will be guaranteed transfer to a California State University with upper division standing and all credits accepted. As you’ll see in this catalog, our degrees range from American Sign Language to Theatre Arts. You’ll also find 25 career certificates, including our premier fire academy, computer-assisted graphic design, respiratory care, and more.

Our students are supported inside and outside of the classroom, with the Transfer Center providing assistance for those seeking to move on to both public and private universities and our expanded Honors Institute enhancing your college experience with challenging coursework and close association with dedicated faculty. If you need help with class assignments, the Tutoring Center provides both student and staff support, including workshops and small study groups, and our active Office of Student Life, which oversees more than 30 student clubs covering a wide range of interests, is here to help engage you with the College. In our new Crafton Center, you'll also find Admissions and Records, Financial Aid, Counseling, Disabled Student Programs and Services (DSPS), and Extended Opportunities Programs and Services (EOPS).

Use this catalog as a guide to charting your future. CHC is committed to student success, and we hope you'll join us on our stunning campus as you embark on your educational journey.
