More students are choosing Clinton Community College

PLATTSBURGH | Clinton Community College is continuing to grow, with fall enrollment up more than 9 percent over a year earlier and the highest since 2020. The college has 488 students enrolled on campus, up from 457 a year ago. In addition, full-time equivalent enrollment, representing the combination of all student schedules to full-time, is more than 11 percent higher than last year. Overall enrollment is 1,171 students, up from 1,068 a year ago. The total number includes those in the high school College Advancement Program, or CAP. The totals are the highest they have been since the fall of 2020, in both the total number of students and new students. "With the CCC campus moving during the peak of the recruitment cycle, we feel good to be in a stronger position," said Ken Knelly, Acting President. "The campus is buzzing with excitement, and the entire campus community has worked hard not only to make the move but also to make our students feel at home in our new spaces." Clinton offers instruction across three primary locations, including its main location on Beekman Street, the Institute for Advanced Manufacturing on Clinton Point Drive and its educational space at University of Vermont Health — Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital. In addition to the energy surrounding the recent campus move, Clinton is also seeing momentum from statewide and local programs aimed at supporting student success. "Clinton is benefitting from new initiatives like SUNY Reconnect, dual admission with SUNY Plattsburgh and the ASAP program, which all allow students, both new and returning, additional flexibility in affording and continuing their education," said Knelly. Students who are interested in learning more about Clinton can attend one of its upcoming Saturday Visit Days on Oct. 25, Nov. 8, Nov. 22 and Dec. 6. They are invited to schedule a time to visit online. On the Nov. 22 and Dec. 6 dates, students will also have the opportunity to learn more about financial aid and receive assistance with completing their Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
