Genesee Community College (GCC), located in Batavia, New York, is a public two-year institution founded in 1966 as part of the State University of New York (SUNY) system. The college offers a range of associate degrees and certificates across various fields with notable programs in nursing, business, and criminal justice. Positioned in a rural setting approximately midway between Rochester and Buffalo, GCC provides students with a tranquil campus environment while still offering accessibility to these larger metropolitan areas. The college facilitates an open admissions policy, accommodating a broad spectrum of applicants each year. GCC's facilities include residence halls for on-campus living, designed to support the educational experience of its diverse student body. The college's sports teams, known as the Cougars, are recognized within the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA), although athletics are not a primary focus of the institution's profile.

Genesee Community College has an open admission policy which permits enrollment by any high school graduate or GED holding student. 1,445 students are enrolled on a full time basis, and 2,878 attend part time. In-state tuition for 2022/2023, excluding room and board, is $4,950 plus fees of $490.
