MESA
The Los Angeles Mission College (LAMC) Math, Engineering, Science, Achievement (MESA) Program is committed to cultivating highly prepared students ready for transfer in calculus-based STEM disciplines. The MESA program aims to offer assistance to students preparing to transfer to a 4-year university to pursue a STEM degree. MESA strives to empower first-generation, low-income, and educationally disadvantaged students, thereby contributing to the growth of underrepresented groups in STEM fields.
STEM METAS
STEM Mission’s Excellence Towards the Advancement of Students (METAS) is a Department of Education Title III funded project with the goal to increase the number of Los Angeles Mission College Hispanic and low-income students who complete or transfer in STEM fields.

Writing Center
The Writing Center is located on the first floor of the LRC Building (Main Campus) for help with all your written assignments and general tutoring for non-STEM courses. Meet with tutors one-on-one or in groups for assistance on campus or online!
While we work to foster success in the short-term learning goals our students bring to us, we believe in the LRC's ability to promote long-term academic success and create lifelong learners. Therefore, the Writing Center staff is not available to proofread your papers or fix your grammar/syntax. Please use NetTutor's paper drop-off center, Microsoft Word, or other applications such as Grammarly for more assistance.
Los Angeles Mission College (LAMC) has agreements with universities and colleges that give students who participate in the Honors Program various transfer application advantages, the most important being priority admission.
