We serve a diverse group of students in a large military community that consists of active duty, national guard, reservists, military retirees and their families. BPCC boasts a state of the art Veterans Resource Center and a Cavalier Care Center to serve student insufficiencies such as food, housing, and state/government assistance applications. BPCC has an office of disability services and a crisis counselor on staff. BPCC offers classes in various modalities at various times of the day. We offer programs that feed into the local community with industry based credentials, certificates, and degrees to be ready for hire. We offer programs ranging from allied health to cyber technology with a national testing center on our campus. We offer athletics, fine arts, and theatre productions with a very active student life department to give students the full campus experience. It is very important for BPCC to provide our students with a safe space to empower them so they can embrace and succeed in their educational goals.
