for those students who want to make it all the way to the top in their career, this is the right college to prepare you before going to the university level. this is not high school anymore, so keep on top of all work and do not procrastinate. use the resources like the tutoring centers and writing labs in order to help you get that a for the home works and presentations.

Eva from Los Angeles, CA
Check out what majors are held here and consider going for that so you can get some experience. Stop by the transfer office and look at the different universities and such you'd be interested in going to. Over at Elac, everyone wants you to get the highest education you can, so transferring should be your first step.
Eric from West Covina, CA
Walk in to the classroom with optimism and an open mind. Some of the professors who give mean faces or seem tough, do it out of the desire to teach all of us a valuable lesson: persistence and discipline. Community college professors are very supportive and will guide and train us all for four year universities.
