Appointments

From June 4 to August 28, appointments will still be available on Fridays and select Saturdays (June 6, 13, 20). The following students may be ineligible for drop-ins and should make an appointment instead:

• First-time college students who haven’t attended a new student Orientation must schedule for a workshop
• Veterans looking to make a VA planner or ask about benefits must make an appointment
• Students with holds may need to make an appointment instead of dropping-in

New students should meet with a counselor to make an educational plan. Your educational plan will outline which courses you should take to meet your educational goal.

Please note: Students seeking appointments with EOPS/CARE, DSPS, CalWORKs, NextUP/Guardian Scholars, Umoja Diop or Puente Project should visit their program's specific web page to make appointments with their program advisors.
