Disneyland

Tuesday May 12, 2026

The moment is finally here. We are SO excited to announce that IEC is taking students to Disneyland! This iconic theme park needs no introduction, opening back in 1955 and setting the blueprint for so many theme parks around the world.

 

The International Education Center extends this opportunity to join us on a trip to Disneyland at a reduced cost! 

 

Both your ticket and transportation are included with a NON-REFUNDABLE deposit of $50. A single park ticket typically goes for over $100 by itself, not including transportation, so this is a great deal!

 

We anticipate this will be our most in-demand event in many years: ACT FAST TO SECURE YOUR SPOT!

Register for the Disneyland trip and then bring $50 non-refundable to the IEC to secure your spot!

Associated Students (A.S.) and Student Clubs

Want to make a difference on campus and make friends at the same time? The Associated Students (A.S.) work hard to represent the interests of the student body & make important changes regarding student life at Santa Monica College.  By participating in student government you can help make sure the students' voices will be heard.   A.S. also oversees the student campus clubs for students with special interests in areas such as science, sports, creative arts, business and industry, service and recreation. Club activities include business meetings, field trips, concerts, lectures, forums and social events. All clubs, except the Honor Scholarship Society (which requires specific qualifications), are open to all students. California law forbids secret fraternities and sororities in public community colleges. 

For more information, visit SMC's Associated Students for information about clubs and other campus-wide activities.
