American River College (ARC) is a two-year community college located in Sacramento in Sacramento County, California.

In 1965 the college became a part of the Los Rios Community College District and became American River College. Today, along with Cosumnes River College, Folsom Lake College and Sacramento City College, ARC is directed by a seven-member board of trustees elected by voters residing in the district.
Current enrollment is 34,000 full-time and part-time students, making it one of the largest community colleges in California.
