Coachella Valley

This spring, construction will begin on the new College of the Desert (COD) Palm Springs campus, which will address the growing need for higher education access on the west side of the Coachella Valley. While COD already has a main campus, the new site was strategically planned to better serve students in Palm Springs and neighboring communities. Located directly across from Palm Springs High School, the campus aims to provide a direct pathway to continued education for students who may not otherwise have the means to attend college.
