In addition to traditional classrooms, the college has an excellent library, gymnasium, fitness suite, TV studio, refectory, extensive computer suites, and other specialist accommodation including a language laboratory and a CADCAM centre.
Chichester College was founded in 1964 to provide academic and technical courses for both young and mature adults. There are approximately 3,500 students undertaking full-time courses (including higher education), over 3,200 part-time students and a further 5,000 students on adult education courses.
The College has a modern Hall of Residence situated on campus with the railway and bus stations only five minutes walk away. The town centre and main shopping area is some six minutes walk from the College.
The College offers a wide range of full-time programmes of study ranging from traditional 'A' level programmes to the recently introduced GNVQ, together with a wide range of vocational programmes. In addition the Learning Support Unit provides support to students with special needs studying on mainstream programmes as well as providing full-time courses of study in its own right.
Tuition fees are not charged to full-time home students under 19 years at the start of their programme of study.
