WELCOME FROM THE DEAN OF Special PRograms

Welcome to the Office of Special Services!  Thank you for visiting our web site at Los Angeles City College (LACC). It is our sincere hope that our services will enhance your educational objectives, help you meet your academic goals, and encourage you to become an advocate for yourself and for others with disabilities.

Academic advisement, counseling, assistive technology, adaptive equipment, exam accommodations, sign language interpreters, Braille transcription, learning disabilities assessment as well as other services are provided for eligible students but you must be authorized by a qualified OSS professional to receive these services. It is important to meet with our professionals to review your educational strengths, limitations and accommodation needs each semester that you are enrolled and request accommodations and support in your classes at LACC.

We strongly encourage you to take this opportunity to review the information on our OSS web site and in the LACC Student Services Handbook available in OSS, Clausen Hall 109.  If you have any questions or need further assistance, please contact any of the personnel listed under OSS Staff.  If you are new to the college a graduating high school student, please request an appointment with one of our OSS counselors or Learning Disabilities Specialists.

Good luck with your educational career and/or transfer objectives at LACC!!!

Randy Anderson, M.S., CCC-SLP
