Ranger College offers dual-credit college classes to students in over 40 different
high schools in our region. Our main campus is located in Ranger, with bustling satellite campuses
in Brown County and Erath County. Ranger College is fully accredited by the Southern
Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).
Ranger College’s main campus occupies a 50-acre campus within the city limits of Ranger,
an Eastland County community of approximately 2500 people, located on Interstate 20 between
Fort Worth and Abilene. The beautifully wooded, rolling hills and many lakes provide
ample opportunities for hunting, fishing, and outdoor recreation, while the City of
Ranger boasts an excellent school system and several active churches.
One of the oldest continuously operating public two-year colleges in the state of
Texas, Ranger opened its doors on the third floor of Ranger High School in August,
1926, with 30 students enrolled. Much has taken place since that austere beginning.
Today the campus in Ranger serves several counties in north central Texas and awards the Associate of Arts, Associate of Science, and Associate of Applied Science
degrees. Students on campus may live in the college’s dormitories and enjoy the college
dining facilities or live at home and commute.
In addition to the Ranger facility, the college provides comprehensive course offerings in
Brown County in Early and in Erath County in Stephenville. Ranger also has available
cosmetology programs in Brownwood and Stephenville. The Ranger College Nursing Programs are offered in Brown County.
Ranger College has experienced tremendous growth in recent years throughout the district.
Especially notable has been the rapid increase in dual enrollment at the 40+ Independent
School Districts served by the institution.
