Grosvenor Close CampusAt present, this satellite campus is home to the School of Nursing and Allied Health Professions, which is subsumed under the Faculty of Pure and Applied Sciences.Northern Bahamas CampusThe Northern Bahamas Campus (NBC) is situated on West Settlers' Way in the centre of the Freeport commercial area, less than ten minutes drive from the airport. Freeport, the chief town of the island of Grand Bahama, is highly modern, well appointed and, for this reason, is known as the nation's "second city".NBC caters mainly to part-time students pursuing bachelor degrees in Education and Business Administration (Accounting and Management), an Associate degree in Computer Information Systems, upgrading in Mathematics and English for adults and the College Preparatory Programme. A Diploma in Education is offered and programmes in Hospitality Studies are also available at this campus. In conjunction with the Centre for Continuing Education and Extension Services, NBC offers a number of general interest courses. The campus has a modest library and computer centre and is continuously expanding its programme offerings. Site preparation has begun for the construction of the new Northern Bahamas Campus to the east of Freeport on 50 acres of land donated by Grand Bahama Port Authority, an enduring friend of The College. Family Island CentresCOB's Family Island Centres facilitate upgrading opportunities to the level of college entrance and the pursuit of general interest courses in the areas of professional and personal development. Academic programme offerings beyond upgrading, even to the baccalaureate level, have been offered. The decision to do so is influenced by considerations of class size and resource availability.Abaco Centre
Andros Centre
Exuma CentreThe Exuma Centre utilises the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology's Resource Centre which was provided by the Benjamin Foundation. Located just outside of George Town, the island's capital, the Centre began in 1993 as an experiment to upgrade a group of adults to the level of college entrance. The Centre's embryonic library supports the research needs of the relevant programmes.
