STEM Summer Bridge at Chabot College
June 23 - July 10, 2025
STEM Summer Bridge is a tuition-free, three-week program that welcomes all in-coming, first-year students entering Chabot College. We want to “bridge” students into a community of learners by taking academic courses, learning about resources, gaining knowledge and skills to succeed early on in a fun, welcoming summer! This program is a major step to completing a degree, certificate and/or transfer within three years. We also want to encourage our students to enter and learn more about STEM majors and careers as this program is funded by the HSI STEM Grant.
Community College Info
Studies show that students who live on campus not only have a higher GPA, but they are more likely to graduate. It’s also a great way to make new friends and get involved in the campus community. Plus, dorms and residence halls are a convenient, cost-effective housing option.
