MESA

San José City College will be launching the MESA Program this Spring 2023 semester. With the launch of the new program, the California Community Colleges Chancellor's Office has awarded SJCC a $1.4M MESA grant for the next five years. MESA is intended for first- generation college students and students historically underrepresented in calculus-based STEM fields. The program aims to produce a diverse population of transfer-ready students to advance their STEM educational journeys in 4-year universities. MESA will provide services such as academic counseling, tutoring, internship opportunities, professional development, community building, and a dedicated study center. The MESA Center is located in M-101. 

Interested students can apply for the MESA Program here
