SKCTC first opened its doors in 1960 with its original campus located in Cumberland, Kentucky. Since then, the College has grown to include campuses in Barbourville, Harlan, Middlesboro, Pineville, and Whitesburg—all in the heart of the beautiful Appalachian Mountains. Multiple campuses enable the College to serve a six-county area, including counties in Tennessee and Virginia.
All campuses enjoy proximity to hiking trails, stunning natural scenery, local wildlife, and numerous outdoor recreational activities. The Cumberland Gap National Historical Park as well as several state parks are nearby. Residents throughout the region enjoy an unusually affordable cost of living.
