Gavilan College is a community college located in Gilroy, California.
The college was established in 1919 as the San Benito County Junior College. It operated as such until 1963, when a new community college district was drawn that included both San Benito County and southern Santa Clara County. The college moved to its present main campus in 1966.
In 1997, campuses were added in Hollister, California and Morgan Hill, California to augment offerings on the main campus.
