The Cuesta College Marketing & Communications Department supports the District’s mission by providing products and services that develop brand awareness of Cuesta College, increase campus engagement, and share events, news, and program offerings with the local community.

PRESS RELEASES

Please submit all requests at least 10 WORKING DAYS before the distribution of the press release, generally 2-4 weeks before an event.
