Welcome!
It takes a certain amount of bravery to live an authentic life. To live in a manner that is true to oneself is all that we ask of students, along with a desire to pursue aspirations that define their authenticity. By choosing Berkeley City College, you choose to align yourself with a college that is grounded in an authentic history of serving its diverse community, including non-traditional and non-binary students.
Thank you for having the courage to express and align yourselves with a college that is historically non-traditional. Berkeley City College welcomes the LGBTQIA student with a commitment to you experiencing a safe and supportive environment in which you can create and be emblematic in ways that will inevitably inspire others. BCC’s mission is to “promote student success, to provide our diverse community with educational opportunities, and to transform lives. The college achieves its mission through instruction, student support and learning resources which enable its enrolled students to earn associate degrees and certificates, and to attain college competency, careers, transfer, and skills for lifelong success.” We are confident that we do our best to live up to our mission, and that those are not just hollow words, but our guiding message.
