WELCOME to <strong>Solano</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>!<br />
Greetings from your<br />
Superintendent-President<br />
Welcome to a new class<br />
<strong>schedule</strong> for the upcoming<br />
semester. This useful guide is<br />
designed to support you in<br />
making the right choices for the<br />
upcoming semester and planning<br />
your educational pursuits as<br />
a <strong>Solano</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
student.<br />
You have several options for<br />
your studies and we want you to<br />
choose wisely. Meeting with one<br />
of the <strong>College</strong> counselors will help you plan a <strong>schedule</strong> that is right<br />
for achieving your educational goals. Your plan should reflect what<br />
you want to gain out of your <strong>SCC</strong> experience, so take it seriously<br />
and use it to help attain your goal!<br />
A variety of services are provided to ensure your success. By<br />
taking advantage of the services, you will avoid pitfalls and you<br />
will be connected to resources to make your <strong>College</strong> experience<br />
meaningful and less arduous. The suite of services we offer our<br />
students includes financial aid, counseling, free tutoring support<br />
for students with disabilities; career planning, student activities,<br />
support for veterans, and more. Your counselor can introduce you<br />
to the services appropriate for your circumstances.<br />
For those of you interested in going on to a four-year college or<br />
university, we have many associate degrees and transfer programs.<br />
If you are seeking to upgrade your skills to find new employment,<br />
we have successful programs offering certificates of achievement.<br />
If you are simply continuing in your pursuit of life-long learning,<br />
then you have lots of choices as well, especially through our noncredit<br />
and <strong>Community</strong> Education offerings.<br />
Our dedicated and enthusiastic faculty—many with regional,<br />
national, and international reputations—have extensive knowledge<br />
and expertise to share with you in our many state-of-the-art multimedia<br />
equipped classrooms or labs.<br />
<strong>Solano</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> has a proud tradition of serving<br />
citizens of <strong>Solano</strong> County and Winters. We want to count you as<br />
