Academic Excellence Workshops and
Student Clustering
- Whenever possible MESA students sign up together
for the same section of the core courses. The Mesa program facilitates this by
offering early registration for its participants. This allows students in the
program to study together and support each other.
Academic Excellence Workshops (AEW) are extra sessions that MESA students
participate in to become more familiar with the material, develop successful
study habits. AEW's have been proven to lead students to better grades and more
success.

MESA Orientation Courses
- Every student who enters MESA at Rio Hondo
college participates in a MESA orientation. This short course introduces the
components and requirements of the program and builds community. These
orientations are given in the week before the semester starts in August and
January (tentative).
In the near future Counseling 151 with emphasis on
Careers in Math, Science and Engineering will be added as a transferable general
education course.
