Located in Tsaile, Arizona, within the Navajo Nation, Dine College is the first tribally controlled institution of higher education in the United States, established in 1968 as Navajo Community College. The rural campus, situated at an elevation of 7,000 feet near the Chuska Mountains, features traditional Navajo-influenced architecture and modern educational facilities. As a public land-grant institution, Dine College offers associate degrees and certificate programs, with a curriculum that integrates Navajo language, culture, and philosophy alongside conventional academic disciplines. The college specializes in Navajo studies, teacher education, and business programs, while maintaining a strong emphasis on preserving and promoting Dine culture and traditions. Students primarily commute to campus, though limited residential housing is available for those requiring on-campus accommodation.
