The Phelan Campus is the main location for college credit ESL classes at City College, with approximately 220 sections of courses offered each semester, taught by about 80 instructors with about 4,000 students enrolled. Classes are offered from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. and on Saturdays. After getting certificates and college degrees from City College, many Credit ESL students continue with their studies by transferring to universities such as San Francisco State and UC Berkeley.
Foreign students have their own counselors.
Of course, students can also choose from hundreds of courses and sections in other subjects at the Phelan Campus while taking ESL classes. Or contact the ESL Department desk on the sixth floor of Batmale Hall, Room 616 on the Phelan Campus.
