How does the Career & Transfer Center serve our diverse population?
We recognize and believe that all students should have access to the services and resources of the Career & Transfer Center.  The college population reflects the growing diversity of Westchester County.  Here are some of the ways we serve this diverse student body.

• The Center is open late (7:30 pm) one evening per week, September – June. 
• Counselors are willing to visit early morning and evening classes as well as off-campus extension sites. 
• Our extensive website provides helpful information for students who cannot visit our offices.  
• Many students are being helped via phone and email.

For General Career & Transfer Help
Our website and print material is a good beginning for students to learn about our services and programs.  Students are able to view and download career, educational, training, and employment information from our website.  Our calendar of events is viewable, as are the handbooks for resume writing and interviewing skills.  The site also provides links to career and transfer resources on the Web.

Students seeking individual appointments with counselors for Career & Transfer assistance should be directed to our office in the Student Center Building, Room 201.  They can also call for an appointment at (914-606-6760).

Referring a Student to the Cooperative Education/Internship Program
As a faculty member at Westchester Community College you play a crucial role in referring students for the Cooperative Education/Internship Program. You are in an excellent position to assess a student’s readiness and appropriateness for a placement. (In fact, students need a recommendation from a faculty member as part of the application process.) In many instances we need referrals from the teaching faculty as placement opportunities come in. So working together, we can optimize placement opportunities for students. In the departments where students can earn academic credit for their placement, faculty act as advisors and mentors while the students are working.
