Work. Kids. Life. College. Only 24 hours in a day. We know it’s not easy, so we created PACE.
PACE is a college program designed for busy adults that enables you to complete an Associate degree in about two years. PACE students take two courses every eight weeks with most courses offered 100% online. You'll get priority access to enroll in PACE courses and exclusive access to our PACE counselors to help you pick the right courses and stay on track.

Once you complete your Associate degree, you have the option to pursue your Bachelor’s degree at one of our transfer partner Universities that also have programs built for busy adults, including CSU Channel Islands, Cal Lutheran University, and more.
Applying to PACE takes THREE easy steps:
STEP ONE
Complete a Moorpark College Application [CLICK HERE]
If you’re a current Moorpark student, you can skip this step.
STEP TWO

STEP THREE
Meet with a PACE Counselor
We’ll reach out to you after you submit your application for scheduling.
Meet in-person or by phone so we can register you for classes and discuss your goals, especially if you want to transfer to a University after PACE.
*Important - Make sure to send us all your official transcripts from other colleges so we can give you credit for completed college courses.
Ok, there’s actually a STEP FOUR. It’s optional, but we strongly recommend it:
