1. 1

   What you can study

   You can study for Associate of Arts, Associate of Science, and Associate of Applied Science degrees, along with certificates and transfer degrees to four-year colleges. The college is focused on community college study rather than a wide university catalogue, so applicants should check the official website for the current programme list and any subject-specific options.

3. 3

   Getting in

   International applicants should apply through the college’s admissions process and confirm the current entry requirements on the official website. If you need to transfer later to a four-year college, check how its transfer degrees are structured and what documentation is required for international students.

4. 4

   What it costs

   The college does not publish a tuition fee range in the available information, so confirm the current cost with its admissions office. Plan for normal living costs in Pendleton, plus housing, food, transport, and study materials.

5. 5

   Coming from abroad

   The language of instruction is not stated, so confirm that directly with the college before applying. If you are moving from abroad, you should also check visa steps, English-language requirements, intake dates, housing, and whether your intended programme is available for international students.

   How it compares

   With 2,515 universities in the United States, this college sits in a very crowded higher-education system, and its value is in its smaller community-college role rather than a broad research profile. It is a practical option if you want lower-level degree study, certificates, or transfer preparation instead of a large university experience.
