The college serves primarily the communities of the southwestern portion of the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area.

The campus is accessible to persons with disabilities, and features eight contemporary brick buildings around a central courtyard.

These buildings include the following: Academic Partnership Center, Activities, Building Services, College Services, Fine Arts, Library, Science, and a newly renovated Student Center.
