Greetings From The President

Welcome to the River Valley Community College! If you are interested in a career program, preparing to transfer to a four-year institution, or just want to take a course or two, you are welcome at our College and we want to help!

Whether you will attend courses at our main campus in Claremont or at our Academic Center in Keene, or participate on-line from home, River Valley is your community college.

You will find faculty and staff who care about you and are ready to answer your questions and help you achieve your goals.

Our College is small enough so that we can get to know you, but large enough to offer 35 degree and certificate programs. Many of our programs involve active learning within the community in which you live. Transfer programs often enable you to save on the cost of your college education. We also offer support services to help you every step of the way. When you succeed, we succeed. When you reach your goal, we have done our job. And it is never too late, because River Valley Community College is a place for lifelong learning.

Perhaps you already know what you want to study, what you want to do with your life. Call us to see how we can help you achieve those goals. If you are unsure of your next step, we can also help. Many of our students start with a basic curriculum to give them the skills they need while they decide on more specific goals, In either case, your community college is here for you. Since River Valley Community College is a fully accredited college, if that next step takes you to a four-year college or university, you will be ready.

Visit us in person or call. We would love to talk to you about what we have to offer. River Valley Community College is here for you. Make us a part of your life. Welcome!
