What Our Students Say
KCC truly embodies 'start here finish anywhere.' At KCC the class sizes are
smaller so it'll be an easier transition from high school to college, but it
also will mean that professors are more attentive to student needs. Some of the
best professors I had throughout my undergrad were professors who are still
at KCC.

KCC has been the best choice when choosing what college to go to, all the professors
are very helpful and if you need anything, they will always help no matter the situation!
KCC is an amazing college and even if you have doubts, it's definitely worth giving it a
shot because you won't be disappointed!
— Adriana Lowery‑Garcia, Current Student
After graduating high school, I was hesitant about attending a four-year
university, and was reluctant on what I wanted to pursue professionally.
I chose Kankakee Community College because it offered me the freedom of
pursuing what I wanted to, and the guidance and academic support I needed
to excel both personally and academically. KCC really set me up for
success as it provided me with those real-world experiences and immersed
me in our community.
