In an effort to minimize and mitigate the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19), there will be no classes held at Palomar College during the week of March 16. The week of March 23 – March 27 is Spring Break and the campus is closed.
Beginning March 30, all classes (with a few exceptions) will be delivered online in a mode that will be identified by instructors. Students are being offered the option of meeting with a counselor via Zoom (video-conference) or telephone. New appointments requests are paused but students can submit any specific or urgent question via email at counselingdepartment@palomar.edu. Counseling staff can answer questions via phone at (760) 891-7511. Additional information can be found on the counseling web page at www.palomar.edu/counseling.
