About The School
Linn–Benton Community College (LBCC) is a two-year junior college, located in Linn County, Oregon. The school offers more than 80 degrees and certificates. LBCC was established in 1966 with the purpose of supporting the citizens of Linn and Benton counties.
In the 1960s a community college was a conceptual idea; however, it wasn’t until 1964 that a study was conducted to assess the need of such an institution. The results of this study showed that post-high school opportunities, educationally, were non-existent and that many graduating high school students were interested in a local community college.
Total estimated program cost is USD $13,300-14,500
