Front Range Community College is driven by our unwavering mission, purpose, vision, and core values. It shows in our devoted and enthusiastic faculty and the motivated students who study here. Many FRCC students are just beginning to explore their interests and discover themselves, and they leave here equipped with the confidence, determination, and passion to better their lives, pursue their dreams, and inspire positive change in the world around them. In all that we do, FRCC hopes to continue to foster that love of learning in the communities we serve.

Our Mission

At Front Range Community College, we enrich lives through learning.

Our Purpose

As an institution of higher education, Front Range Community College admits individuals 17 years of age or older who can benefit from college preparatory and two-year college-level instruction in general education and occupational areas, which may lead to a Certificate or an Associate of Applied Science, Associate of Arts, Associate of Science, or Associate of General Studies degree, or lead the student to transfer to a four-year institution.

We serve individuals of all ages who can benefit from non-credit instruction for personal and professional development, recreation and fitness, and individual and family enrichment.

We serve employees of local businesses and industries who can benefit from workplace skill development from customized and/or for-credit courses.

We serve all individuals in our communities by developing and enriching the local economy and culture.
