COUNSELING SERVICES
The Counseling Division at Skyline College is
designed to assist individuals in all aspects of their devel-
opment as students and help them accomplish their
goals. Career and educational counseling services are
emphasized. A counselor can help students establish
both short and long range goals and provide them with
information about courses and programs that transfer
to four-year colleges and universities. Counselors assist
students in developing an individual Student Educational
Plan (SEP), which maps out courses that will be taken
over a number of semesters and serves as a guide to
achieving goals. All students are required to have an
SEP on file once they have completed 15 units at
Skyline College. Assistance with students’ personal and
social concerns is also available.
Counseling appointments are made in the One-Stop
Student Services Center, Building 2, or by calling (650)
738-4318.
