Clarify your academic goal and choose your major

The Counseling Department at West Los Angeles College assists students in making decisions regarding educational, career, and personal goals. Counseling is available for educational, transfer, and career exploration. These services are provided by professional counselors through individual counseling, workshops, and referrals to resources on and off-campus.

An academic counseling session begins with educational goal-setting, exploring education options and opportunities, evaluating the student’s educational background, and providing the student with clear, concise, up-to-date educational information.

You must make an appointment to meet with a counselor

A counseling session will assist individuals in selecting appropriate programs of study relative to their chosen objectives. Individual student/counselor conferences are available by appointment. Counseling is available on a walk-in basis during registration time only.
