Saginaw Chippewa Tribal College (SCTC) is a two-year community college located in Mount Pleasant, Michigan, United States. It is a non-profit higher education institution and it was chartered as a public institution for all community residents. After the Saginaw Chippewa Tribal Committee passed a resolution in 1998, it established a controlled tribal college and the governing board of regents. The college was fully accredited in 2007.
It promotes increased accessibility of higher education for area residents, while protecting and maintaining the Saginaw Chippewa tribal culture. It may also appeal to non-native students. The Isabella Reservation and the greater Mount Pleasant area are its chief service areas; the Saganing Reservation is secondary. The SCTC provides three degrees, including liberal arts/general studies, Native American studies, and business. After completing these degrees, students may transfer to local baccalaureate degree programs.
