Welcome to your Saint Paul College

Rassoul Dastmozd, Ph.D. President

The mission of Saint Paul College is to provide “Education for employment …. Education for Life.”

Saint Paul College offers comprehensive learning opportunities in both career and transfer education to enhance personal knowledge and advance economic opportunity for the benefit of a diverse population of constituents, which includes students, business/industry/labor and the community.

We are honored that you have chosen Saint Paul College as your #1 resource for a plan and a pathway to a bright future.

We are excited about all of the changes Saint Paul College has experienced and the new things we can offer you this year. New facilities, new programs, and more! We remain a more affordable option than many—if not most—other colleges in the area.

We believe that our most valuable success is the thousands of students who find a home at Saint Paul College every year.

Saint Paul College was recently ranked the #1 community college in the nation by Washington Monthly magazine, for student engagement in active and collaborative learning, student-faculty interaction, and support for learning. If you are looking for a caring, supportive, and nurturing learning environment where dedicated and knowledgeable faculty and staff are committed to your future, you have come to the right place.
