California College San Diego

California College San Diego was formerly known as California College for Health Sciences (CCHS) and before that as the California College for Respiratory Therapy (CCRT). Prior to moving to California in April 1976, CCRT was located in Phoenix, Arizona, and was known as the Scottsdale Education Center, which originated in December 1971.

In May 2003, the College was purchased by California College, Inc. and became the newest member of a family of schools that includes the Stevens-Henager Colleges and CollegeAmerica. At that time, the name of the institution was changed to California College San Diego and the
academic offerings were expanded to include degree programs in business, technology, and medical specialties. A Satellite campus opened in National City in June 2011.
A branch campus opened in San Marcos in October 2011.
