Gavilan College is a public community college in Santa Clara County, California.
Worth considering if you're looking for an affordable community college option in the South Bay area, as the smaller enrollment of about 4,400 students means a less overwhelming environment than larger campuses. The numbers tell a mixed story, though — median earnings of $37,000 a decade after enrollment sit below California's cost of living, so students should be intentional about using this as a transfer launchpad to a four-year school or pairing it with a high-demand vocational program rather than treating it as a final destination.
