Excellent Education

At Mt. San Antonio College, you'll find faculty, courses, facilities, and technology that rival that of the best four-year universities. We pride ourselves on the excellence and variety of our academic programs. Our students get the chance to participate in prestigious research programs and have a better chance of getting into a 4-year university after taking their first two years of college here.

We provide our students the same general education classes that our UC, CSU, and private university counterparts do, and many programs that they don't. Our students and staff have earned numerous awards for their work, including state and national championships for everything from robotics to track to industrial design.

We have an Honors Program for motivated students with strong academic records. The transferable general education courses provided through the Honors Program strengthen students' transcripts, increase their chances of getting into top-tier universities, and offer personal, seminar-style instruction. Apply for the honors program here.

We are also proud to offer hundreds of certificate and training programs to help students learn new skills and advance their careers. You can explore our 200+ degree and certificate programs here.
