COVID 19 & GAVILAN COLLEGE MESA

We are better TOGETHER! This page will serve as a connection point for Gavilan College's MESA Services to stay connected–to stay TOGETHER–as we weather the Coronavirus. Bookmark this page so that you can stay up-to-date with all that is happening in the Gavilan College MESA community.

Gavilan College MESA Program

Are you interested in math, engineering, or science? The Mathematics, Engineering, and Science Achievement (MESA) community college program can provide academic support to help you excel in these subjects and transfer to a university to continue your studies.

Our goal is to support educationally disadvantaged and historically under-represented undergraduate community college students and develop a new generation of STEM leaders in California.

The MESA program at Gavilan College provides not only services, but also a culture and community geared toward student success in STEM disciplines. We are here to help you succeed!
