State Budget & Community College Update

July 29, 2009

The California State Legislature has passed and the governor has signed the 2009-10 budget. All California Community Colleges are funded by the state and the Legislature determines the enrollment fees that students pay per unit.

Effective immediately, the new Fall 2009 per unit fee is $26. Fall students who have already applied and enrolled can find their new Account Balance in their home page of the mySierra portal. Students who have yet to apply and enroll will be charged the correct amount.

Sierra College's budget will also be significantly reduced. This could result in some course cancellations and/or a reduction in services and hours. As soon changes occur, we will update this page and the website. We will also inform students precisely what to expect through their mySierra account and official Sierra College e-mail.
