Baldy, Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga (Alta Loma, Cucamonga, and Etiwanda), and Upland are located. The college's superior education courses provide a basis for students to transfer to four-year colleges and universities or to acquire job skills necessary for the changing marketplace. The Radiologic Technology program at Chaffey College leads to an Associate in Science degree and has been accredited since 1970.
