My STEM MESA Program experience
When I first enrolled at LA Mission College, my initial goal was simply to complete my classes before transferring. However, upon joining the STEM MESA program, I realized that it offers much more than that! Through my participation in MESA, I've been exposed to various opportunities that I believe will not only enhance my competitiveness as a transfer student but also improve my skills relevant to my field.
