STUDENTS

TVCC serves over 5,100 students annually. Most of these are from Oregon or the neighboring Idaho communities. For the 2023-24 academic year, the average age of TVCC students was 23 years of age, reflecting the College's blend of traditional and non-traditional learners. TVCC regularly sees a strong balance in enrollment between students enrolled in credit-bearing courses taken towards academic transfer programs, and those enrolled in one of the College's many professional-technical programs. Other students enroll for personal enrichment, professional development, or the skill preparation necessary to enter an academic or professional-technical program. Online education plays a critical role for TVCC students, with 25 - 30% of students who are taking credit-bearing courses enrolling exclusively in online courses.

Because TVCC is a small college, the emphasis is on individual learning. Faculty involvement, small classes, student activities, and individualized attention contribute to an appealing academic and social atmosphere where students succeed.
