The Counseling Center is designed to help students plan their educational program, provide information on transfer, degree, and certificate requirements, assist with career planning, and help solve personal problems. Students are encouraged to make an appointment with a counselor after applying to AVC. 

AVC Counseling offices are now open for express counseling and to make an appointment at the front counter. Appointments can also be booked via phone or online. See below for details.

We will get to your response as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.
