Eccles College was an incorporated further education college in Eccles, Greater Manchester, England. It opened in 1973, and ceased to function as an independent body on 1 January 2009. The site continues to function under new management, as the Eccles Centre of Salford City College.
The site currently provides AS and A level courses, amongst others. Students may also retake their GCSEs at the college. As an independent college Eccles had an average pass rate above the national average.
The merger of Eccles College, Salford College and Pendleton College took place on 1 January 2009, forming the new Salford City College. Eccles College and Salford College had their corporations dissolved, and all assets and staff transferred to Pendleton's administration. Pendleton College was then renamed to 'Salford City College'.
