Valencia College

At Valencia we never stop asking the big questions about why we exist and what is our purpose. As we strive to have our students learn as much as possible for as little as possible, we constantly look back at our history and mission to make sure we’re on the right track. These documents aren’t just words to us, they help explain who we are and why we’re here.
