Colorado Northwestern Community College was founded in 1962 as “Rangely College”. Today CNCC serves 1,700 students between its two campuses and online offerings. The main campus in Rangely sits atop a mesa overlooking the Rio Blanco river valley. It is home to top-notch programs in Dental Hygiene, Aviation Flight, Aviation Maintenance, and a National Park Ranger Academy.
