We have a SPOT for you at San José City College: Student Pathway to Opportunity and Transfer. 

The SJCC Jaguar SPOTs are eight areas of study designed to help students graduate and transfer in as little as two years or head straight into the workforce.  

What are the SJCC SPOTS? 

• Business, Economics, & Information Technology 

• Health Care & Human Services

• Humanities, Social Sciences & Education

• Industrial & Technical Careers 

• Languages & Communication

• Personal & Career Exploration

Why are SJCC Jaguar SPOTs Unique? 

• We offer 29 transfer degrees with a guaranteed transfer to the California State University System (CSU). 

• You will be able to transfer with at least 60 units. In most cases, that’s half the units needed to earn a bachelor’s degree. 

• We also have transfer guarantees to the University of California System (UC) and many private universities. 

How do we support students in the SPOT they choose?
