Colorado Northwestern Community College is a public community college with campuses in Rangely and Craig, Colorado, United States. The college participates in the National Intercollegiate Flying Association (NIFA) and the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA).
Rangely Campus
The Rangely Campus of CNCC, serving around 300 students, sits on a lush mesa overlooking the town of Rangely. Established in 1962 as “Rangely College,” it has earned a sterling reputation for its Dental Hygiene, Aviation, and Park Ranger Training Programs. Today, students describe the campus as a “mini university” complete with residence halls, a vibrant student life, and five NJCAA Division I athletic teams.
A full array of outdoor activities and programs are available to students, including river rafting, ice climbing, camping, and even spelunking. Minutes from the deep canyons and rock formations of Dinosaur National Monument, Rangely is the center of life in this vibrant natural resource area of Colorado.
The Campus is well-connected with the Rangely community. The local taxing district provides a 100% tuition buy-down to its residents and the college offers an impressive array of community education classes and seminars.
Craig Campus
In 1985, Colorado Northwestern Community College extended its services to Craig, Colorado. A community of approximately 9,000, Craig is located 93 miles northeast of Rangely, 42 miles west of Steamboat Springs and 90 miles north of Rifle.
Originally, CNCC Craig offered classes throughout the community in facilities that were available at the time. In 1989 the Moffat County Affiliated Junior College district Board of Control purchased the Bell Tower Building.
In 2010, CNCC built a new campus in Craig. Located on 100 acres just north of the recently completed Memorial Hospital, CNCC-Craig Campus opened August 8, 2011. This 78,000 square foot building is LEED certified and is home to classrooms, laboratories, a virtual library, a Nursing program, Adult Learning Assistance Center and a student lounge. Adjacent to the building is a career technical center where students can receive training in Cosmetology, Massage Therapy, Mine Safety, and Automotive/Diesel Technology.
