As a comprehensive community college, Los Angeles City College offers programs, coursework, support, and guidance to develop a community of learners, both near and far, with the knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for optimal growth and action in their personal and professional lives. As its primary mission, Los Angeles City College offers post-secondary lower division arts and sciences and vocational courses enabling students to complete Certificate and Associate Degree programs leading directly to direct entrance into the workforce. A curriculum designed in preparation for transfer to a four-year institution.

Set on an attractive 49 acres, Los Angeles City College was the original location for UCLA before it moved to Westwood, CA. The college facilities include more than a dozen multistory classroom buildings including a library, computer labs, fitness centers, theatre, and TV/film studios. Through a $147 million bond award, the college is further enhancing itself with a new and advanced technology learning facility, increased parking, and expanded athletic/fitness and child development centers. (Note: LACC does not provide campus housing. However, inexpensive rentals are available in the surrounding community.) Our student body is one of the most diverse in the country. Students range in age from late teens to seniors and come from every ethnic group, culture and country in the world.
