OUR COLLEGE

Fullerton College is the oldest community college in continuous operation in California (founded April 24, 1913), and is also recognized as one of the finest in the nation. A public college paralleling the lower division of university education, it offers industrial, vocational and general education.

Fullerton College is part of the North Orange County Community College District, a multi-college district that includes Cypress College, which opened its doors in September of 1966. A third site, a 190-acre parcel just east of Yorba Linda, accommodates a Continuing Education Center, site of the administrative offices for the Adult Education Center.
