DEGREES AND CERTIFICATES OFFERED AT LASSEN

Choosing a degree or certificate can be difficult. Take a Career, Interest and Skills survey at the Career & Transfer Center. This survey can help you determine the right career or major for you. Bring the results when you meet with your counselor. This list of our DEGREES & CERTIFICATES  will get you started. You can also pick up curriculum guides for every degree/certificate we offer from the racks outside the Counseling Office.

CURRENT STUDENTS

 It’s best to meet with your counselor at least once every semester, and more often if you are having academic or personal concerns. Be sure to make an appointment for a comprehensive Education Plan during your 2nd semester.
