Monterey Peninsula College and California State University at Monterey Bay are working together to allow students to enjoy the best of both institutions- often at the same time! We are fostering the notion that students are not only MPC or CSUMB students, but collectively our students. Students who begin their educational journey at either college are encouraged to explore the educational opportunities that span the two. Freshmen at CSUMB can brush up on remedial skills or explore new ideas at MPC, while MPC students can explore furthering their education by taking a course at CSUMB. Please use this page as a reference, as well as contact information for specific reps on each campus to help answer your questions.
