At LaGuardia, we challenge expectations and dare to do more — so that students can write their own futures, and together, we can build a stronger economy, a stronger country and a better world. LaGuardia Community College located in Long Island City, Queens, was founded in 1971 as a bold experiment in opening the doors of higher education to all, and we proudly carry forward that legacy today. LaGuardia educates students through over 50 degree, certificate and continuing education programs, providing an inspiring place for students to achieve their dreams. At LaGuardia, we imagine new ideas, create new curriculum and pioneer programs to make our community and our country stronger.
