Community Colleges
Public Two Year College
One factor consideration in choosing a college for many students is the choice between a two-year and a four-year college. If attending a traditional 4 year college appears too expensive or time consuming but you still want to upgrade your skills or earn more, community college may be the practical, economic solution you are looking for.

Kansas Community Colleges (2-Yr Colleges)

Kansas Junior Colleges, Technical Schools, and Institutes

The State of Kansas administers its own system of higher education which operate at least two tiers of public colleges. One being the community colleges in Kansas, sometimes called Kansas junior colleges, or Kansas technical institutes, and so-called "four-year" Kansas colleges which award bachelor's and master's degrees. The "two-year" community educational institutions provide post-secondary education and lower-level tertiary education, granting certificates, diplomas, and associate's degrees in Kansas. The name, "community colleges" derives from the fact that "two-year" colleges primarily accept, and attract, students from the Kansas local community

The history of community colleges in Kansas has been integrally tied to a 25-year effort to restructure higher education governance. Traditionally, governance of postsecondary education in Kansas has been fragmented, with coordination responsibility for community colleges falling under the State Board of Education. The state has a large number of higher education institutions per capita, making access to an institution relatively easy for most residents. Kansas students now are served by 19 community colleges, four technical colleges and seven free-standing area vocational technical schools. In 1999, after years of wrangling, the legislature finally approved a major restructuring of the entire higher education system.

Kansas Colleges
Kansas' colleges and universities offer more than just great history and views of the prairie they're also within striking distance of Kansas City (which is home to 9 higher education institutions itself). Kansas City, once a gateway for settlers heading west, is now a modern city filled with as much culture as history.
