Commencement ceremonies haven’t taken place at Pierce College yet, but registration for fall courses has already begun.
With it’s line-up of classes in everything from accounting to welding, the school offers selections for students looking to complete lower division general education requirements before transferring to a university; those seeking to learn vocational skills; and even those who’d like to take a class or two just because they’ve always been interested in, say, the anthropology of religion, magic and witchcraft (which, by the way, is offered from 11:10 a.m. to 12:35 p.m. Mondays and Wednesdays).
A complete schedule of classes is available for download on Pierce College's schedules page, where you can also apply for admission and register for classes. On the school’s schedule page, you can also select to see just open classes, short-term classes, weekend classes and off-campus classes. The school’s general catalog is also available on the page.
