About This School

Mt. San Antonio College is a public community college in Walnut, California. It offers more than 400-degree and certificate programs, 36 support programs, and more than 50 student clubs and athletic programs, including food pantry, counseling, and tutoring. The college offers associate degrees, career education, community recreation courses, ESL, adult education, and youth summer programs.
With over 400 degree and certificate programs and remarkably low median debt of just $5,880, this is a strong option for students looking to earn a credential or transfer to a four-year school without taking on serious financial risk. That said, median earnings of $41,400 a decade after enrollment are modest, so students should be intentional about choosing a program with clear career or transfer outcomes rather than drifting through general coursework. The strong network of support services — counseling, tutoring, and even a food pantry — makes it especially worth considering for first-generation or cost-conscious students who need more than just classes.
