Moorpark College Counselors are professional, credentialed faculty who utilize a variety of skills to assist students in reaching their goals. Academic counseling involves the use of assessment data, prior academic history, and life experiences to determine the academic preparedness of the student. The counselor works closely with students to formulate an academic plan. Many studies have been completed by ACT which reveal that students who know what their college goals are, are more likely to succeed and complete their college education. Counselors recognize the important role Career Guidance and Counseling plays in not only retention efforts, but also in helping students.
Counselors assist students with a variety of concerns which effect their educational goals.
The variety of described counseling services is available on a day and evening basis to current and prospective students. The Moorpark College Counseling Staff has been acknowledged for its excellence by many state organizations. In 1978, the counselors were presented with the prestigious H.B. McDaniel Award for Outstanding Counseling Services in California. We encourage every student and member of the community to utilize the resources available through our office.
