Cosumnes River College (pronounced "Co-SOME-ness") is a student-centered, open-access community college dedicated to preparing students for an ever-changing future. Our courses and programs empower our diverse students to earn certificates or degrees, transfer to other educational institutions, or attain other lifelong academic or career aspirations.
Cosumnes River College has an enrollment of approximately 16,000 students, with 62.4% of the student population under the age of 25, and 10.4% over the age of 39. As one of the most diverse two-year public colleges in the country, we believe our strength is found in our ethnically diverse student body.

The NBA's Sacramento Kings will play at home on November 5th, November 7th, and November 9th, 2025, and they hope to light the beam atop the Golden 1 Center on all three nights. Their preseason performance was less than satisfying, but hopefully they can turn on the energy when the regular season starts just prior to the conference.
