Parkland College Arba Minch (PCA) provides students with a very friendly and welcoming environment to
enhance their potential. It is not only an institution from which students will
acquire knowledge and skills but, it also creates the most comfortable environment
for them to contribute to the knowledge, skills and experience-building and sharing endeavours.
Different forums are put in place to help students practice their leadership, management,
presentation, research, debate and critical thinking skills. Our college help students
grow personally, academically, professionally, and socially.
PCA has a well-established culture of quality assurance and enhancement practices.
To ensure that its services are of high quality and standard, the college involves practitioners,
academicians and researchers in its teaching and assessment. This allows students to see the convergence
and/or divergence between theory and practice.
Parkland College has been a premier choice for both boys and girls because it has a safe college.
More than 60% of diplomas and more than one-third of the graduate students are female. The College
takes extra care of its students. To this effect, the College has implemented systems that help
students exercise their rights.
Currently, Parkland College has one college. It is located at the heart of Arba Minch –
Sikela Square. The college is 5 and 2 kilometres away from Shecha and Limat respectively.
The college is accessible for students coming from and going in different directions.
One can catch a taxi/bajaj a couple of seconds walk away from the college to go to any direction
of the city.

Free Scholarship
Parkland College will award a free scholarship to the student who wins the trophy among graduating students.
Also, our college provides the opportunity to study for free for those students who cannot pay for it. To use this opportunity, a letter of support from the government is required. Since we offer free education to a limited number of students, the college reserves the right to hold an entrance exam if there are more applications than the number of students allowed by the college.
