UC Clermont is an open admissions institution, providing access to higher education to anyone with a high school diploma or equivalency. Clermont College's rolling admissions policy allows students to enroll any academic semester: autumn, spring or summer.[2]

UC Clermont sponsors a variety of fine arts, including the Calico Children's Theatre and the Park National Bank Art Gallery. Additionally, the UC Clermont College Krueger Auditorium is also the home of the Clermont Philharmonic Orchestra.

History

The college opened in 1972 and offers more than fifty associate degree and certificate programs and one bachelor's degree program.

In 2010 select programs at the Clermont campus moved to a new campus, known as UC East, located off of State Route 32 at the former Batavia Transmission plant,[3] due to Clermont College's recent enrollment growth.[4] UC East is now home to many of the nursing and other health-related programs from UC Clermont.[5]
