History

Mt. SAC was founded in 1945 as "Eastern Los Angeles County Community College." It was later renamed for the snow-capped mountain that is visible in the distance from the campus (commonly known by locals as "Mt. Baldy").  Mt. SAC's 421-acre campus was once part of the La Puente Rancho.  There was an army hospital on the site during World War II, which later became a Navy hospital. In 1946, this facility opened as Mt. San Antonio College.

The area around Mt. SAC was not yet populated, and was accessed by dirt roads that ran through grasslands and fields of cactus.  The local area began to develop as Mt. SAC grew in size.  The city of Walnut, California sprung up around the Mt. SAC campus, and the college district now includes cities such as Baldwin Park, Covina, Diamond Bar, Hacienda Heights, Irwindale, La Puente, Pomona, West Covina, and more.

The Mt. SAC academic calendar follows the semester system, with fall and spring semesters running 16 weeks.  There is a shorter, 5-week winter "intersession" and a summer "intersession."
