From the Institution

Copper Mountain College (CMC), located six miles east of Joshua Tree, is renowned as the college built by the people, its first phase having been paid for almost entirely with local private money and subsequent phases with substantial private help. Now governed by its own locally elected board of trustees, CMC's road to independence was accelerated by legislative action in recognition of the college's uniquely strong local support. CMC offers Associate degrees and certificate programs in 24 fields of study. Classes are offered at the Joshua Tree Campus and in various other locations convenient to neighborhood residents. CMC's Developmental Education program provides all adults of the Morongo Basin the opportunity to enroll in classes directed at completing a high school diploma and/or GED. Copper Mountain Colleges' academic calendar includes a fall, spring, and summer session beginning in August, January, and June respectively.
