2022 SDSU MESA Graduation & Recognition Reception:

With SDSU rolling out new scholarship application deadlines and scholarship committee review timelines, the Scholarship portion of the Reception has been moved to a seperate, smaller Reception event, to be held in Fall 2022.

With SDSU rolling out new scholarship application deadlines and scholarship committee review timelines, we have had to split the Graduation and Scholarship Reception up.

Due to continued coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the 37th Annual SDSU MESA Graduation & Scholarship Reception was held virtually on Thursday, May 13, 2021, from 4:00-5:30 pm, through Zoom.

Due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the 2020 SDSU MESA Graduation & Scholarship Reception to be held on Friday, April 24, 2020, from 4:00-6:00 pm at SDSU's Parma Payne Goodall Alumni Center was cancelled.

In lieu of a physical Reception, MESA hosted a virtual graduation for graduating SDSU MESA students.
