Guam Community College
From its island location in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, Guam Community College is the only 2-year community college on the United States territory of Guam. GCC is home to ten academic departments offering 20 degree and 19 certificate programs. Throughout the year, GCC participates in several environmental sustainability initiatives including the annual International Coastal Cleanup. To better connect students to the ancestral heritage of their homeland, GCC produces a video series on the history and culture of Guam’s native inhabitants in Fino’ Håya, the island’s indigenous language.

Overall, terrific teachers/instructors that care a great deal about getting the education that we (students) deserve. They continue to assure that students understand the course lessons, more so, willing to take time out to work with students that may have difficulty with certain areas of the course.
