Made by Students, for Students and Parents/Families

​Here at USC MESA, we keep a close connection to former MESA students, who are now current USC students. Our MESA College Prep graduates work to help current MESA students achieve their academic dreams too.

This website is for YOU, current USC MESA students. Please use this website as a tool for academic, college, and career support. We are always here to help. USC MESA is here for you.
