SMC campus
The city campus of SMC provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Oakland has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students.
The school has a library where students can do their homework or just relax. The educational institution cares about the physical health of students, therefore it provides a number of opportunities to strengthen physical fitness: sports grounds, clubs and various sports events.
After graduation, students are allowed to stay in United States for a year. During this time, graduates can find a job and change their student visa to a work one. We talk about other options for immigration in our article.
