Marin Community
College of Marin has been providing exceptional educational opportunities since 1926. The College has earned a reputation as a quality educational institution that provides a pathway for achievement and success for students of all ages.
Each semester about 6,600 students are enrolled in over 1,048 credit classes on the Kentfield and Indian Valley campuses. Approximately 200 international students participate in College of Marin’s International Student Program, making for a culturally diverse educational experience. Nearly 5,000 students take advantage of the College’s many outstanding community education and services classes.
With the extensive support provided by College of Marin faculty, staff and guidance counselors, College of Marin’s students are achieving outstanding academic success. To facilitate students’ transfer to the four-year institution of their choice, the College has established approximately 200 transfer agreements with the University of California, California State University and private colleges. When measured as a percentage of full-time students, the number of College of Marin students who transfer to four-year institutions is among the highest in the state. In addition, studies have shown that College of Marin students often outperform those students who enter four-year institutions directly from high school.
Completing lower division studies at College of Marin can save students thousands of dollars a year over the cost of a university. Fees for credit classes are $20 per unit. Some non-credit classes are free, while others vary.
Campuses are busy days, evenings and weekends. Performing arts and cultural events draw crowds throughout the year. Residents of the county attend classes, participate in seminars and workshops, use the athletic facilities and enjoy the beautiful grounds of the campuses.
