Fullerton College Welcomes Students to Fall 2021
Fullerton College is thrilled to welcome students to its beautiful campus this fall in a safe and gradual reopening on Aug. 23. Significant changes have been made throughout the campus to upgrade ventilation systems and create safe and welcoming spaces for students. Students will be required to check-in when they arrive on campus.
Student Resources and Support
During the Fall 2021 semester, Fullerton College will gradually reintroduce in-person services – and– maintain offering an array of online support services for students. Most departments will begin the semester by offering services online, while we continue to monitor COVID-19 and the uptick of cases statewide. A full reopening of the campus is expected in January 2022.
Fullerton College will provide all students with free parking permits and free student ID cards during the Fall 2021 semester. These new forms of support have been added to the growing list of support services offered since the pandemic began. We encourage all students to review and access these services prior to the start of classes:
