Clinton is a wonderful place to experience American college life. Also it’s a perfect spot to experience the cycle of the four seasons (fall, spring, summer and winter).

“There are several reasons I chose Clinton. First, Clinton Community College is part of the SUNY system so I could easily complete my associate degree and transfer to a 4-year college in the SUNY system. Second, CCC was a great starting place with quality education for a foreign student like me while I was getting used to the US education system and culture. The courses at CCC gave me a strong background while not being overwhelmed. Third, the tuition was affordable.”
