Welcome to Noncredit Counseling!
Since March of 2020, the Noncredit Counseling department has been serving noncredit students from Santa Maria, Lompoc, and Santa Ynez Valley remotely. This semester we will continue to assist students via telephone, email, online chat, and/or video-conferencing.
In addition, one of our staff members will be offering limited on campus appointments every Wednesday inside of the Counseling office in building A. Please call ahead time to set up an in person appointment. We know this is a time of uncertainty and concern for many of you, and we want to reassure them that we are here to support you.
Our team is committed to continue offering excellent services while also protecting the health and safety of our students, faculty, staff, and community. We thank you and appreciate your flexibility and understanding as we navigate through these challenging times. Please stay healthy!
