How it’s possible?

PCC was awarded Title III grant funding in 2018, under the Strengthening Institutions Program. The purpose of the grant is to provide funding to improve academic programs, institutional management, and fiscal stability to increase self-sufficiency and institution capacity in higher education resources.

What students are saying…

“Help is always near. Whether you need assistance with an assignment, counseling, or just a quiet place to study, the Transition Center is there for you. When ever I needed help with anything, I knew the staff at the center was always there for me and more than willing to help.”

– CJ Gonzalez, Transition Center Student
