SLCC West Valley Center Grand Opening


Salt Lake Community College joined the community and leaders Aug. 15 to open our newest location, West Valley Center, 3460 S. 5600 West in West Valley City.

A ribbon cutting was held with special guests, Utah Rep. Sophia DiCaro, Utah Sen. Luz Escamilla, and West Valley City Councilman Corey Rushton. Guests were given tours of the facilities, refreshments and gifts.

Whether it’s the basics, such as English or math, or more off-the-beaten path, such as astronomy or yoga, West Valley Center offers a variety of subjects to fit many goals and aspirations. The Center will also have student services for veterans, people with disabilities, and those in need of financial assistance. 

Close to Granger, Kearns, Hunter and Cyprus high schools, SLCC is collaborating with community, government and business leaders to ensure the West Valley Center meets the needs of the area and its residents. 

Just like SLCC’s many other locations in the Salt Lake Valley, the new West Valley Center gives students an affordable, convenient option for fully transferrable general education courses as well as classes for the lifelong learner. Registration is now open, and classes start Aug. 26.

Vaccination Requirement for Summer, Fall Registration Remains In Place

  As has been the case throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Salt Lake Community College is committed to creating a safe and healthy learning environment. To ensure that everyone in our campus community remain as safe as possible, SLCC will require that all students be up-to-date on their COVID-19 vaccinations, including booster doses as applicable, for the upcoming Summer and Fall Semesters.   Students accessing SLCC’s registration portal will have an automatic hold placed on their registration. To remove the hold, students will need to upload proof of current vaccination or claim an exemption. Exemptions can be granted for medical, religious or personal reasons.
