The Institution |
About Established in 2004 as the fourth college in the Los Rios Community College District, Folsom Lake College (FLC) is a vibrant teaching and learning environment that sits on the traditional home of the sovereign Nisenan, Maidu, and Miwok peoples who have a unique and enduring relationship stewarding this land since time immemorial. Despite colonization, occupation, and genocide, the Nisenan, Maidu, and Miwok people continue and thrive in their resilience and self-determination. FLC celebrates and recognizes its Nisenan, Maidu, and Miwok tribal neighbors and honors their sustained existence. With an enrollment of over 10,000 students, FLC is an Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institution (AANAPISI), an emerging Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI), and serves Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) students. The College is comprised of the Folsom main campus and its two educational centers, the El Dorado Center in Placerville (EDC) and the Rancho Cordova Center (RCC). The college also serves students at multiple local state prisons through an extensive Prison and Reentry Education Program (PREP) and is expanding access to high school students through dual enrollment and middle college programs. Combined, these form a dynamic learning community committed to academic excellence, innovation, educational equity, inclusive excellence, and social justice. Our Strengths Folsom Lake College centers student success by providing a broad range of degree and certificate programs and student support services in different modalities (including online and hybrid) that prepare students for transfer and/or career opportunities, as well as options for student engagement, innovation, and leadership. The college provides educational environments designed to empower, inspire, and enrich all student populations including employment opportunities to provide economic pathways for students from historically underrepresented backgrounds. One of Folsom Lake College’s strengths is its Equity Center which fosters community, supports disproportionately impacted students, and creates a safe space where BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ students, faculty, and staff feel welcomed and included. The Equity Center offers in-person, online, and hybrid programming, professional development, counseling, tutoring, and more. The College also incorporates the newest technologies for innovative classroom instruction, including collaboration with the Innovation Center/Makerspace at the main campus. The Harris Center for the Arts presents a distinguished program of arts, culture, and entertainment that engages the entire region and is home to FLC’s visual and performing arts instructional programs. The award winning Falcon Athletics provides opportunities for student-athletes to succeed both on and off the field. In Fall 2025 a new 75,000 square feet Science Building will be completed focusing on STEM-related fields, including a MESA program. Our Commitment to Diversity, Inclusion, Equity, and Social Justice Our college community honors equity, diversity, social justice, antiracism, and environmental sustainability as foundational to academic, campus, and community life.
