The site includes a 110,000 square-foot building, as well as a three-story parking structure. Planned site improvements include completion of a new interior looped road and installation of walkways, landscaping and lighting. On the building interior, plans include a lobby, classrooms for lecture and laboratory, academic division offices, spaces for student support services, a bookstore and food services, information services, plus a community room.<\/p>\n

The site purchase and improvements are being funded with Proposition M general obligation bond funds. This $694 million bond was approved by District voters in November 2006.<\/p>\n

Classes are scheduled to be offered at the South Education Center starting in summer 2018.<\/p>\n

\n<\/strong>From 1-15 in Rancho Bernardo, exit on westbound Rancho Bernardo Road. Continue .9 miles to the stoplight at Matinal Road. Turn left (south) into the Palomar College South Education Center campus. Follow directions to the parking area.<\/p>\n
