Welcome to Skyline College



Overview

Umoja (a Kiswahili word meaning unity) is a community dedicated to enhancing the cultural and educational experiences of African American and other students. It is a family that helps its members navigate the college environment and become successful in education.

Skyline's Umoja Learning Community is open to all students but specifically designed to increase the retention and success rates as well as the graduation and transfer rates of African ancestry students.

We believe when the voices and histories of students are recognized, the opportunity for self-efficacy, or self-belief, emerges. This is a foundation for academic success.
