LACC: The City's College

Established in 1929, Los Angeles City College is one of the oldest of the California Community Colleges. Located in the heart of Hollywood, LACC provides a dynamic innovative learning environment offering more than 100 vocational and professional programs including degrees, transfer programs and certificates in disciplines to more than 18,000 students.

LACC has been part of the fabric of the city of Los Angeles for more than 90 years, with both UCLA and Cal State Los Angeles originating on the LACC campus. As a diverse college and a vehicle for increasing social and economic mobility for our city, LACC remains the destination for students to believe, achieve, and succeed.

LACC provides a wide range of professional and vocational programs. Transfer agreements with four-year universities make it easy for students to continue their education or enter the workforce after earning certification in areas such as business administration, retail management, nursing, radiology, child development and law enforcement.

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. Since its opening, LACC has always risen to the challenges presented by a world undergoing rapid and confusing changes. As The City’s College, we are committed to providing a welcoming, inclusive, supportive, and accepting community where all who come feel as if they belong.
