Gulf Coast Community College-Panama City School Description

Imagine a college close to the Gulf of Mexico, with its emerald green waters and dazzling white sand. Add quality academic and occupational programs, a friendly atmosphere, and an accent on student success, and you have Gulf Coast Community College...Learning Without Limits!

Serving the Panhandle since 1957, Gulf Coast Community College was the first public two-year institution to open after the 1957 Florida Legislature established a statewide network of community colleges. Located in Panama City on Florida's Emerald Coast, Gulf Coast is one of 28 public community colleges in the state, all located within commuting distance of 96 percent of the population.

For its first nine years, the college served primarily the residents of Bay County. In the summer of 1966, Gulf County became part of the college's service district, and Franklin County was added in 1984. Each semester, the college enrolls over 7,000 students in credit courses, with many thousands more registering in lifelong learning or continuing education programs.

Throughout its history, the college has been committed to providing a first-class education. This commitment is evidenced by the excellent performance of GCCC graduates who transfer to a state university as well as by the high job placement rates of students in occupational programs.

Gulf Coast Community College holds students and community of central importance. The college provides many opportunities for learning and offers a range of programs and services to help students become well-educated, productive citizens. The college is equally dedicated to collaborating with the community to help create or improve economic well-being and to offer the space of the college for social dialog, events of art and culture, and other moments that enhance our quality of life.

We have flexible scheduling and outstanding programs that fit many needs; if we can assist, please call or visit our many locations.

We are continually seeking new ways to enhance student learning and success. Let us help you reach your educational goals!
