Many students want college athletics to be part of their college experience.

You will find competitive men’s and women’s intercollegiate athletics programs at most Maryland community colleges. We are part of the Maryland Junior College Athletic Conference (MDJUCO) and the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA).

Common intercollegiate sports include:
baseball, basketball, lacrosse, soccer, track & field, and volleyball.

Numerous recreational co-ed sports programs add to the fun for everyone.

You don’t have to travel far to find the arts, live entertainment, and cultural expression. Your local community college has more to offer than you probably know.

Student artists can create, display and perform their art.

Community members can attend affordable, local live performances, and visit uncrowded galleries featuring works by both guest and student artists.
