UC Clermont is an open admissions institution, providing access to higher education to anyone with a high school diploma or equivalency.

Clermont College's rolling admissions policy allows students to enroll any academic semester: autumn, spring or summer.

In 2010 select programs at the Clermont campus moved to a new campus, known as UC East, located off of State Route 32 at the former Batavia Transmission plant,[3] due to Clermont College's recent enrollment growth.

Currently independent, they were previously members of the now defunct Ohio Collegiate Athletic Conference (OCAC).

Previous sports include women's softball, tennis, and golf.
