Johnson County Community College (JCCC) is a public community college located in Overland Park, Kansas, in the heart of the Kansas City metropolitan area. Founded in 1969 when Johnson County voters approved $12.9 million in bonds to establish a two-year college, JCCC began classes in leased facilities in Merriam in 1969 before moving to its permanent 200-acre campus at College Boulevard and Quivira Road in 1972. JCCC enrolls approximately 17,000 students annually and is one of the premier community colleges in the Midwest. The college offers more than 100 degree and certificate programs across business, health sciences, information technology, liberal arts, and the trades. JCCC is distinguished by its exceptional student outcomes: 95% of graduates find employment, and ten-year median earnings reach $45,387. The college is particularly noted for its award-winning Carlsen Center for the arts, which serves as a major cultural venue for the Kansas City region. JCCC's strong career placement rates and seamless transfer pathways to the University of Kansas, Kansas State University, and other regional institutions have made it a destination of choice for students seeking an outstanding two-year educational experience in the Kansas City area.
