Western Colorado Community College
Western Colorado Community College (WCCC) is a division of Colorado Mesa University in Grand Junction, Colorado specializing in vocational studies. Unlike other institutions deemed "community college," WCCC is not a separate entity from its parent institution. A student takes core curriculum courses at CMU but completes his or her program of study at WCCC. Associate degrees from WCCC are awarded by Colorado Mesa University.
