Bucks County Community College (BCCC), located in Newtown, Pennsylvania, offers a comprehensive educational experience in a suburban setting, close to the cultural and economic hub of Philadelphia. Founded in 1964, the institution has since served as a pivotal platform for higher education within the region. BCCC operates on a rolling admissions policy with a noncompetitive selectivity, aiming to provide accessible education for its applicants. The college spans a 200-acre campus known for its blend of modern and historic architecture, including the original Tyler Mansion and gardens. While BCCC primarily serves as a commuter school, it extends its reach through satellite campuses in Bristol and Perkasie. It holds an academic portfolio featuring a range of programs, notably including health sciences, business administration, and information technology. Despite a focus on academics, BCCC does not significantly emphasize intercollegiate athletics.

Bucks County Community College has an open admission policy which permits enrollment by any high school graduate or GED holding student.  2,045 students are enrolled on a full time basis, and 4,117 attend part time. In-state tuition for 2022/2023, excluding room and board, is $7,920 plus fees of $1,301.
