President's Message
Saturday, Sept. 17, 2022 is the 65th anniversary of the founding of Manatee Junior College. Over those years there have been many changes , including our name; first to Manatee Community College and then to SCF. What hasn't changed is the pride we share in providing our community higher education opportunities to meet its economic and cultural needs.

SCF has more than 55,000 alumni and a tradition of offering a full college experience that includes athletics, student clubs and organizations, fine and performing arts, an honors program and student-centered academics. The college has adapted throughout the years, completing strategic growth initiatives and adjusting degree offerings to meet local workforce needs.
