East Los Angeles College is located in Monterey Park, Ca. Monterey Park is like the suburbs of California. ELAC is the most prominent Junior Colleges in the united states holding over 30,000 students. The campus is so beautiful, and there are always events happening, so it gives students a chance to branch out and try new things.
There are a total of three plazas around the school that has food and other necessities. If you are an in-state student, your tuition most likely will be covered by your FAFSA, grants, and any other scholarships. However, out-of-state students, it is expensive! There are no dorms. There are many resources around the campus to help you if you do struggle academically. If you are a student-athlete looking into this school, you are in good hands. The counselors are extremely helpful.
Universities like UCLA, Cal State schools are always on campus to share their information for a student that wants to transfer to a 4-year institute.

My overall experience at East Los Angeles College has been pretty great. I began attending the summer of 2019 for a course that was required as part of the LA College Promise. The college offers plenty of resources for minority students (undocumented students, students who are parents, people of color) and these services are easily accessible both online and in-person. Most of the professors interact with the students and offer help when needed. The tutors on campus are also very attentive and try their best to ensure that the people who are attending tutoring sessions are obtaining the help they seek. Like any other college/university ELAC has some flaws
East Los Angeles college is the best school to attend wether you are unsure what to study your major in or the best way to start your college education. The staff are alway there for you, it easy to set up a conference video call, or normal! I know because I needed a way to get back my feet and start my college education. This is the school for anyone despite of ethnicity or gender identity.
