Attention Mendocino College students! As we wrap up the semester, we want to remind everyone that all campus locations will be closed for Winter Break starting Wednesday, December 24, 2025, through Thursday, January 1, 2026, to allow our students, faculty, and staff time to rest and recharge. This closure includes all administrative offices and student services. We look forward to seeing everyone back on campus and ready for the new year when we reopen in 2026.

We hope you have a safe, relaxing, and happy holiday break!
