How Do I Qualify for ACE Services?
- Be a registered student at Golden West College. Everyone who is interested in taking classes at Golden West College must first submit an application to the Admissions Office. Applications can be obtained from the Admissions & Records Office, by calling the ACE Office 714-895-8721, or by following this link: Application to Apply.
- Have a Verification of Disability on file. Students must provide a verification of disability from a certified physician or professional or to go to the ACE Office and sign a release form allowing the ACE Office to contact the appropriate physician or professional to verify the disability.
[Please Note: The ACE Office will attempt to obtain the verification of disability; however, it is the student's responsibility to provide the office with verification. Failure to do so may result in termination of ACE services.]
- Make an appointment with the ACE counselor. The counselor will provide the student with information about the college, academic matriculation and classes, transfer and degree requirements, vocational programs, student services, accommodations and support services, and develop Student Education Plan (SEP). Please call 714-895-8721 to schedule an appointment.
Based on the information obtained, the ACE counselor or the ACE director will determine eligibility for services.
