A majority of the seniors graduating in June will go on to post-secondary education and probably choose Community College. Why? The reason is simple … cost … the per unit cost = $20. The second reason may be the variety of courses offered at MESA, MIRAMAR & CITY COLLEGE. At community college a student can choose to take courses leading to an Associates degree or select courses that offer industry specific certifications.  

For students interested in pursuing a four-year degree, the San Diego Community College District offers guaranteed admission to UCSD via the UCSD TAG Program and guaranteed admission to other top UC and CSU schools via the University Transfer Program. So whether the student is interested in pursuing industry specific certification or doing courses leading to an eventual transfer to a four-year university, Community College offers a wide variety of choices at a very low cost.
