District Information
Yuba Community College District
Yuba College, in its 78th year of community service, founded in 1927,
is located on a campus outside of Marysville with twenty–three buildings
on a 160-acre site. In December, 1965, the College District was reorganized
to include Colusa, Sutter, and Yuba counties and in 1974-75 to include
large portions of Glenn, Lake, and Yolo counties. The District now stretches
across the broad central valley of California from high in the foothills
of the Sierra Nevada to the Coast Range and covers 4,192 square miles.
Yuba College
The College opened on this site in September, 1962. The physical plant
ranks with the finest in the State, providing all the facilities for lower
division college work. Shops, laboratories, classrooms, athletic fields,
the Theatre, and a library are at the service of students and the community.
An experienced and well-trained faculty offers instruction in over 90
departments totaling more than 1,000 courses.
Woodland Community College
The Woodland Community College has been developed by the Yuba Community
College District to provide educational programs for the Esparto and Woodland
communities and adjacent areas of Yolo, Colusa, and Sutter counties.
The Campus is located at 2300 E. Gibson Road in Woodland. This developing
site has seven buildings, including a Learning Resources Building, a Child
Development Center, a Science Building, a mixture of classrooms and laboratories,
and a Bookstore. Plans for a Emerging Technology complex have been submitted
to the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office for funding.
Other buildings, facilities, and programs are scheduled to be added. The
development of these facilities stands as a symbol of the Yuba College

the people of Yolo County and surrounding areas.
