At Mission College, you can earn an Associate Degree in majors such as business, computer science, engineering, hospitality management, graphic design, biological sciences, and many others. After completing their first 60+ units at Mission College, many students then transfer to a university to complete their Bachelor's degree. Our international students have transferred to many prestigious four-year universities, including:

Some international students also choose to participate in Optional Practical Training (OPT) after completing the Associate degree and before transferring to a university. This work permission allows an international student to obtain work experience in their field of study upon completion of their degree.
