Building for the Next Generation of Students

Approximately $500 million will be invested over the next decade to support new construction and modernization of Sierra College’s Rocklin campus facilities. This construction program will create modern and comfortable classrooms, offices and gathering places, which will allow Sierra College to serve future generations of area residents.
