Western Colorado Community College (WCCC) is a branch of Colorado Mesa University specializing in vocational studies. Unlike other institutions deemed "community college," the WCCC is not a separate entity from its parent institution. A student takes core curriculum courses at CMU but completes his or her program of study at the WCCC. Associate degrees from the WCCC are awarded by Colorado Mesa University.
