The TLC has counselors that can assist students
with:
Educational
planning
Students are encouraged to
speak with counselors regarding any academic planning issues which may
arise during their time at Palomar College. Counselors will assist with
identifying academic goals and developing
computer generated student education
plans through a scheduled appointment.
Deciding
on your program/major
For many students deciding
on a program/major can be confusing and
frustrating. You may feel pressure to
immediately decide on a major and to know what
path to take.
Nevertheless, deciding on a college major
is a process that often takes time.
Getting to know yourself
and your
options is the first step in choosing a college
major.
A counselor can assist you
through the process.
Career
exploration
Counselors offer guidance
to those students who are uncertain of their
career path.
Students are encouraged to explore career
possibilities through the guidance of career
counselors, use of research materials and career assessment inventories.
Transfer
planning for UC, CSU, Private and
Out-of-State colleges
Through scheduled
appointments students will learn how to
successfully transfer to a four-year
university. You will receive assistance in
researching and choosing the right
university based on your individual needs.
Personal
Counseling
Counselors will provide
support to those students with issues arising
from managing the stress of
school life and personal life. They will also
make referrals to other professionals,
shelters, hotlines, and other resources.
Personal counseling sessions will be kept
confidential.
Walk-in Counseling
A 5–15 minute walk-in
session is available through the academic year
to students with short questions.
Examples
include: Requests for Math/English eligibility; simple or
general questions about degree and or transfer
requirements; general questions
about financial aid options; printing out
pre-existing education plans; questions
about deadlines, timelines, course
equivalencies, workshops, and identifying
additional support services and resources.
