East Los Angeles College is a community college, of the Los Angeles Community College District, located in the Los Angeles suburb of Monterey Park. It compliments 14 communities comprising its primary service area. It was located in northeastern East Los Angeles (hence the name) before that part of unincorporated East Los Angeles was annexed by Monterey Park in the early 1970s. ELAC, as it is known, is located in the southern area of Monterey Park where it is primarily populated by second generation Mexicans/Hispanics/Latinos (the areas north of the hills are heavily populated by second generation Chinese Americans). ELAC is a two year college, offering associate degree programs in over 25 fields as well as both academic transfer courses which prepare students for admission to the University of California and California State University system and occupational programs which prepare students for careers in two years or less. ELAC is considered by many as the primary accessible higher education stepping stone for East Los Angeles (East LA) and its surrounding areas e.g. Lincoln Heights, Boyle Heights, City of Commerce, Montebello, Bell, Bell Gardens, Maywood, Cudahy, Huntington Park, Vernon; as well as the South West San Gabriel Valley areas of Alhambra and Monterey Park. ELAC offers high school students that did not acquire the GPA, grades, or missed the college/university deadlines an opportunity to acquire and/or further develop the necessary Math, English, study and discipline skills, explore majors and career fields, and be able to research four year colleges and universities that grant B.A./B.S. degrees.
