CA Independent Colleges

 

Many Napa Valley College students transfer to California Independent (private) colleges and universities.  Many of these schools are members of AICCU or you can find them on CaliforniaColleges.edu.  Some of the independent schools in the local area are:

• Dominican University of California (San Rafael)
• Pacific Union College (Angwin)
• Saint Mary’s College of California (Moraga)
• Samuel Merritt University (Oakland)
• University of Massachusetts Global (UMass Global, formerly Brandman University)
