The High Intensity Transfer Enrichment (HITE) and Honors Program, which includes Alpha Gamma Sigma (AGS), the California State Community College Honor Society, and Phi Theta Kappa (PTK), the International Honor Society for Two-Year Colleges, are designed to challenge students to achieve their highest academic potential and to successfully transfer to a four-year institution. The Transfer Alliance Agreement (TAA) Program has developed over the years a special alliance with the colleges and universities to which most of our students transfer. All students who participate and complete these programs receive immediate notations on their transcripts and special recognition at graduation and on their Diplomas.

Benefits for participating in the HITE and Honors Program include the opportunity to establish a closer relationship with professors, increasing the likelihood of better letters of recommendation for transfer admissions and scholarships. HITE and Honors students also have the chance to tour local four-year colleges and universities, where they meet with counselors and often receive complimentary catalogs, library cards and tickets to cultural and sporting events.
