Copper Mountain College Foundation (CMCF) will once again be guaranteeing that CMC students can get to and from classes safely when school starts on August 23, 2021.

Partnering with Morongo Basin Transit Authority (MBTA), the Foundation will provide monthly bus passes to any registered CMC student through the Office of Student Services. Students must show their current CMC ID card when using the monthly pass.

CMC students can obtain a monthly pass during regular business hours at the college’s Office of Student Services beginning August 16, 2021.

Understandably, transportation is often a huge barrier when attending college, and the Foundation is committed to breaking down barriers for the nearly 2,000 students at Copper Mountain College. Thanks to their generous donors, the Foundation subsidizes the free bus rides for CMC students through MBTA every year.

According to Sandy Smith, CMCF Executive Director, “Despite the costs that are often required to attend college, higher education is still one of the best investments that students and their families can make, which is why Copper Mountain College Foundation remains committed to breaking down this particular barrier and promoting access to CMC for everyone in the Morongo Basin.”

If you would like to learn more about transportation to CMC or contribute to the betterment of all students, please contact the Foundation at 760.366.3791, ext. 4200, or visit our website.
