A Learning Community for the First Two Years of College With programs at SF State & City College of San Francisco
Metro Academy of Health was developed to support the next generation of leaders in health education in urban communities. Each Metro Academy is a 'school within a school' to give you an educational home in your first two years of college. Metro gives you personalized support for college success through in-class academic support and tutoring. At the core of Metro is a learning community made up of two linked courses each semester, pairing a general education course and a Metro Health course. In Metro Academy, you will build a solid foundation for college success and meaningful work in urban health and human services.
