Clinton Community College Transition


Clinton Community College is planning to move its operations to the SUNY Plattsburgh campus beginning with the fall 2025 semester. The community college will maintain and enhance its two-year associate degree and other academic programs along with its unique identity. It is not a merger.

Growing and maintaining layers of higher education within Clinton County is important to the North Country’s students, families, businesses and more. The ability of Clinton Community College to continue to provide degrees and programs depends on its financial stability, accreditation and enrollment, elements the transition will be focused on.

Details & Progress


Clinton Community College’s shift of operations and the identification of a location and shared services will occur over time. A plan and timeline will be developed over the spring 2024 semester through the work of a joint coordinating committee of faculty and staff from both institutions. This will inform final decision making.

As work advances, SUNY Plattsburgh will always protect its campus and ensure its continued success academically, financially, and regionally, as well as work to ensure SUNY Plattsburgh is the flagship university of the North Country and protect our sphere of influence.
