Student Counseling
There are several counseling departments available to serve you at City College of San Francisco as well as five different Retention Programs housed under the Multi-Cultural Retention Services Department. The counselors in these various departments are all part of a COUNSELING TEAM and are all here to help you find your way through City College and to assist you in completing your educational goals.
You may notice some overlap in the services offered by some of the departments. It is advisable to find a counselor you work well with- the choice is yours. And, you may see more than one counselor, in different departments, at the same time!
We’re a team- your success team!
Counselors provide orientation to students in both credit and non-credit, guide students in the development of their educational plan; lead students to essential support services; and assist students with personal concerns and the development of good study skills.
Academic counselors can assist students to discuss requirements for a certificate, degree, or transfer to a 4-year institution at any of the CCSF campuses.
