Clackamas Community College (CCC) is a public community college in Oregon City, Oregon. Founded in 1966, it is one of the largest community colleges in the state of Oregon. Clackamas Community College offers courses at three campuses: the central campus in Oregon City, Harmony Community Campus in Clackamas, and the Wilsonville campus. Extension sites are also located in the towns of Canby and Molalla, where CCC offers English as a Second Language, GED in Spanish, computer science and community education classes. CCC is also the only college to offer an urban agriculture certificate in the state of Oregon.
This is a solid, affordable option for students looking to keep costs low — at just $8,236/year after aid and a median graduation debt of only $6,973, it's one of the more financially sensible paths you'll find. The concern worth flagging is that median earnings sit at $37,900 a decade out, which is modest and suggests most students are landing in regional jobs rather than high-paying careers — fine if that's the goal, but worth thinking through if you're hoping for a big income return on your education. Best suited for students pursuing transfer pathways, trades, or local workforce entry who want minimal debt and a manageable campus experience.
