Returning Students
Welcome!
Welcome and thank you for choosing Diné College, the nation’s first and largest tribal college. It is an exciting time at Diné College, as 2008 will mark our 40th anniversary in celebration of preparing “warriors” in the fields of education, health, public safety, business, culture, and leadership.
We are committed to helping you succeed. Diné College offers a diverse list of courses either for personal enjoyment or towards fulfillment of academic degree requirements. Whether it is math, science, business, Diné language, culture or history, our accreditation by the North Central Association’s Higher Learning Commission for Colleges and Universities ensures you of a quality and credible education at an affordable price.
Since our inception in 1968, Diné College has worked to create the most appropriate atmosphere to foster learning. Our guiding philosophy of Sa'ah Naaghai Bik'eh Hozhoo provides and supports life-long learning. Further contributing to a well-balanced learning environment are our four principles of Nitsàhàkees (Thinking), Nahatà (Planning), Iinà (Living), and Siihasin (Assuring).
As the original tribal college, our dedicated faculty and staff are committed to meeting our charter and mission by offering a meaningful and challenging educational experience to our students. Again, I welcome you to Diné College. I invite you to take a look at our catalog of classes and I encourage you to make Diné College a stepping stone in your educational journey towards fulfilling your life goals.
