Enrollment
LACCD is the largest community college district in California and among the largest in the nation. Currently, LACCD enrolls about 194,00 full- and part-time students at its nine colleges. For the 2023-24 Academic Year, enrollment was 193,960 students.
More than half of all LACCD students report their incomes at near or below the poverty line.
During the 2022–2023 Academic Year, LACCD distributed nearly $266M in financial aid awards, not including student loans. This financial aid is critical to opening the doors of higher education to those who could not otherwise afford college. Research shows that an education at LACCD’s colleges is an important source of economic stability and upward mobility for some of the neediest residents of Los Angeles County. LACCD graduates with an associate degree earn, on average, 33% percent more than persons who only have a high school diploma.
Academic Achievement
For 2022–23, the District conferred nearly 35,000 awards, including two-year degrees and certificates. Over 5,000 of those awards were transfer degrees. In addition, in this year, West Los Angeles College was the highest producing community college in California for four-year bachelor’s degrees. In 2022–23, 58 students earned their bachelor’s in Dental Hygiene, a 100-percent increase over the 29 students who were the first-ever in the District to receive similar bachelor’s degrees in 2018.
Los Angeles College Promise Program
The Los Angeles College Promise Program entered its seventh year of operations with the fall term of the 2023–2024 Academic Year. The student success program provides two full years of free tuition, free laptop computers, priority registration and access to educational and financial aid counseling for first-time, full-time students who enroll in the program. Close to 36,000 students enrolled and nearly 8,000 students graduated with Associate degree since the program first began in 2017.
