Semesters begin in mid-August and early January. A summer intersession starts in June. The total full-time college staff numbers approximately 640.

THE AREA Stockton is a city with a population of over 296,000 consisting of a rich cultural mix, where housing is still affordable. Situated in the rich agricultural valley of San Joaquin, Stockton offers easy access to the Pacific Ocean, the Mother Lode country, and the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The City of Stockton received the "All-America City Award" in June 1999. Located 90 miles east of San Francisco and 45 miles south of Sacramento, the Stockton area boasts warm sunny days and evening breezes from the Delta waterways much of the year. Stockton is an inland deep-water port and is located adjacent to the Delta, a network of over 1,000 miles of rivers and sloughs. These same waterways offer many opportunities for recreation, such as fishing and boating. The Stockton area also offers ample opportunities for advanced education. Institutions of higher education include the University of the Pacific, CSU Stanislaus and Humphrey's School of Law. Some of these institutions offer extension courses on the Delta College campus.
