Kellogg Community College is
ranked the No. 1 best community
college in Michigan for the second
consecutive year by financial ser-
vices company WalletHub.
That’s according to the company’s
list of “Best & Worst Community
Colleges (2024),” which was
released Aug. 13, a KCC press
release stated.
KCC also ranks 21st on the list
nationwide out of a sample of 653
institutions, placing the college
among the top 3.2 percent of com-
munity colleges across the U.S.
WalletHub created the list to pro-
vide prospective students with an
at-a-glance comparison of various
institutions’ quality and affordability.
Researchers evaluated the colleges

“The WalletHub report once again

validates what our community

already knows: Kellogg Community

College remains the most accessible

and affordable option for local stu-

dents seeking a quality education,”

KCC President Dr. Paul Watson said.

“Education is vital to a thriving com-

munity, and KCC is proud to be rec-

ognized as a leader in helping every

student succeed and work toward a

better future.”

Watson’s comments are bolstered

by MI School Data reports that for

more than a decade have shown

more high school graduates in Barry,

Branch and Calhoun counties choose

to begin their higher education pur-

suits at KCC than at any other college

or university in the state, the press

release said.
