The College of San Mateo (CSM) offers a variety of business and management courses, though it does not provide a full MBA program. As a community college, CSM focuses on associate degrees and certificate programs in business administration, accounting, and related fields. These courses can serve as a foundation for transferring to a four-year university to pursue an MBA.
Students interested in advanced business degrees may complete lower-division requirements at CSM before transferring to institutions like San Francisco State University or UC Berkeley. CSM’s programs emphasize practical skills, affordability, and accessibility, making them a viable stepping stone for future MBA candidates.
