Three Rivers Community College (Connecticut)

Three Rivers Community College (TRCC) is a public community college in Norwich, Connecticut. It was formed in 1992 by the merger of Mohegan Community College and Thames Valley State Technical College and is named after the three major rivers in the region: the Shetucket, the Yantic and the Thames. It is accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education.

Merged into Connecticut State Community College
2023 was the last commencement under the name "Three Rivers Community College." As of July 1, 2023, it, along with the other 11 community colleges, merged into a single state institution. It is now the Three Rivers campus of Connecticut State Community College.

Campus
The college was split between the Mohegan and Thames Valley campuses on opposite sides of Norwich. In 2003, the state legislature approved funding to consolidate the college at the Thames Valley campus. In 2009, the college finally consolidated into the one campus on New London Turnpike. There are also two off-campus instructional centers, one at the nearby Naval Submarine Base, the other at Ella Grasso Technical School in Groton.

Three Rivers Middle College
Three Rivers Community College is also the home of Three Rivers Middle College (TRMC), a dual-enrollment magnet high school. TRMC students combine the last two years of high school with up to one full year of college courses, giving them a head start on their associate degrees.
