Hancock Hosts Virtual Student Services Showcase

MAY 7, 2020-- Allan Hancock College is inviting students preparing to register for summer and fall classes to learn more about important support services during a series of virtual “Student Services Showcase” workshops.

The workshops will be held in English and Spanish via Zoom on May 18 and May 19. On both days, the English-language workshops will take place from 6 - 7 p.m., followed by Spanish-language workshops from 7:15 - 8:15 p.m. Zoom links to the workshops are available on Hancock’s COVID-19 information webpage.

The workshops will help students learn how to access a variety of services from various Hancock departments, including Financial Aid, Tutoring, EOPS/CARE, Foster Youth, the Veteran Success Center, the University Transfer Center, Career Services, CAN-TRIO, CalSOAP, Counseling, Dream Center, Student Life and Activities.

Hancock will continue to offer classes remotely this summer, and these critical student services will also continue to be offered virtually to ensure students remain connected to the resources they need to be successful.

“We want our students to feel engaged and understand that we are here to help them even though they cannot be physically on campus,” said Hancock Dean of Student Services Yvonne Teniente-Cuello. “We know that students who get connected to these services early tend to be more successful during their tenure at AHC. We want them to know about all of the services, events, staff, and activities that will help them along their journey as a student.”

Priority registration for summer and fall classes at Hancock is ongoing, and general registration for summer and fall begins May 9. Summer classes start June 15, and fall classes start Aug. 17.

Hancock continues to monitor the evolving COVID-19 outbreak situation and will provide further information and updates regarding the fall 2020 term as more information becomes available.
