We're Going Places
Kind and Caring Support
Picking the right pathway and classes can feel overwhelming, but our counselors will help you make informed choices.
Career and Transfer Services
We are always offering opportunities to meet with representatives from four-year universities so you can make the best decision about where you want to transfer.
Historically Black Colleges and Universities
Many Historically Black Colleges and Universities are thousands of miles away, making it difficult to visit their campuses. Delta College brings them to Stockton so that you can meet directly with representatives and learn if an HBCU makes sense for you.
Classes That Count
We work hard to make sure your classes line up smoothly with CSU and UC requirements. That means the courses you take here are carefully aligned so your credits transfer and count when you move on to a four-year university. Learn more about how "articulation" works.
College You Can Afford
Through grants, scholarships, and work-study, there are many ways to make college affordable at Delta. In fact, many students pay no tuition at all, saving thousands of dollars before transferring to a university.
