Situated in Dallas, North Carolina, Gaston College is a public community college providing a variety of associate degree programs, certificates, and diplomas. The college, established in 1963, operates on a scenic suburban campus setting that is proximate to the major urban center of Charlotte. Gaston College maintains an open admissions policy, making it accessible to a broad range of students. The institution is known for its emphasis on technical and vocational education, with popular programs including health sciences, business, and advanced manufacturing. While primarily a commuter college, Gaston College has made provisions for student residences in recent years to accommodate those who wish to live on or near campus. The college does not have an extensive intercollegiate athletics program and is thereby more focused on its academic and technical offerings than on athletic pursuits.
