A year later, in 1987, the Board of Trustees approved an extensive Five-Point Plan. This plan involved changing the school's name to Capitol College, developing new curricula in [[electrical engineering]] and [[telecommunication]]s, creating student housing on campus, and moving from a [[academic quarter (year division)|quarter system]] to a [[semester]] system. In January 1989, six apartment-style [[dormitory|residence halls]] were completed, named after various inventors: [[Alexander Graham Bell|Bell]], [[Lee De Forest|De Forest]], [[Thomas Edison|Edison]], [[Benjamin Franklin|Franklin]], [[Samuel F. B. Morse|Morse]], and [[Charles Proteus Steinmetz|Steinmetz]]. In August 1990, the Graduate School was created to offer the college's first [[Master's degree]]s in [[systems management]], similar to a degree offered at the time by the [[U.S.C. Institute of Safety and Systems Management]]..

Over the following seven years, the college expanded its graduate degree offerings, partnered with [[NASA]] to offer preparatory summer courses in [[engineering]] for [[minority group|minority]] students, developed a Distance Learning Center, and opened the renovated Puente Library, also housing the McGowan Center for Innovative Teaching. In 1997, the college offered its first courses online over the [[Internet]]. Since then, new undergraduate and graduate programs have been introduced, the Space Operations Institute was established and expanded,<ref name = "gsfc-soi-feature">{{cite web|url=http://www.nasa.gov/centers/goddard/news/features/2010/capitol-college.html |title=Goddard Partnership Creating Engineering Pipeline |author=Christina Coleman |publisher=NASA Goddard Space Flight Center |date=October 4, 2010 |access-date=November 12, 2011}}</ref> the McGowan Academic Center was constructed,<ref name="cmbr-mcgowan-bldg">{{cite web |url=http://www.cambridgearchitectural.com/Project.aspx?ID=20 |title=McGowan |publisher=Cambridge Architectural |year=2010 |access-date=November 12, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111220014628/http://www.cambridgearchitectural.com/Project.aspx?ID=20 |archive-date=2011-12-20 |url-status=dead }}</ref> and enrollment has increased.
