CONGRATULATIONS CCCP Scholars and all transfer admitted for fall 2022! Have questions? Our staff is available during office hours listed at the CCCP Virtual Hub through Zoom.
Our physical offices are located in Campbell Hall, second floor, room 2211 and are currently open with limited access. Due to regional and campus COVID-19 positivity trends, as well as staffing and operational concerns, CCCP is offering both remote and limited in-person services until further notice.
CCCP would like to acknowledge and applaud all our CCCP Scholars for applying for Fall 2022 to UCLA and many other great institutions. Regardless of the outcome, you have demonstrated dedication, tenacity and persistence. As you continue on your transfer journey, all of who you are will be what you need to succeed. Congratulations!
The Center for Community College Partnerships (CCCP) at UCLA acknowledge the Tongva peoples as the traditional land caretakers of Tovaangar (Los Angeles basin, So. Channel Islands) and are grateful to have the opportunity to work for the taraaxatom (indigenous peoples) in this place. As a land grant institution, we pay our respects to Honuukvetam (Ancestors), ‘Ahiihirom (Elders) and ‘eyoohiinkem (our relatives/relations) past, present and emerging.
We hope this finds you and your loved ones well, safe and healthy. We understand that COVID-19 has changed the ways in which we go about our daily lives. As we are all learning how to be our best selves during this pandemic, we realize how, now more than ever, our work needs to persist. Our commitment remains your academic preparation and your well-being as part of the larger arc of justice and equity.
In that spirit, the CCCP staff continues to provide our services mainly online during Winter 2022 with a few in-person opportunities. As we are planning for Spring and Summer, we may be able to offer more in-person programs. As of now, for our CCCP Scholars 2022-2023 cohort, we are tentatively offering SITE Plus and Power 2 the Transfer Webinars. Please browse our website for our latest information by navigating the different tabs and be on the lookout for updates in the coming months.

CCCP Staff, February 2022
Available NOW!
It is a great honor to announce that after a long writing process the book, “Power to the Transfer: Critical Race Theory and a Transfer Receptive Culture (perspectives on Access, Equity, and Diversifying Pathways in P-20 Education)” is available. You may order your copy here.
“This book aims to provide direction toward the development and maintenance of a transfer receptive culture, which is defined as an institutional commitment by a university to support transfer students of color. A transfer receptive culture explicitly acknowledges the roles of race and racism in the vertical transfer process from a community college to a university and unapologetically centers transfer as a form of equity in the higher education pipeline.”
The book is written by Dr. Jain, former CCCP staff member and Assistant Professor of Education at CSUN; CCCP Assistant Director, Santiago Bernal; and CCCP Director and Vice Provost, Alfred Herrera.

CCCP Student Staff Handout Fall 2022-Spring 2023 (The handout does not reflect latest deadline)
The Center for Community College Partnerships is built on the principles of community: we move forward by uplifting each other. The CCCP Scholars community is now 20 years strong and CCCP continues to find ways in which we can facilitate connections, share our sources of knowledge and benefit not only current community college students but also those who join Team CCCP: peer advisors, full-time staff and volunteers.
Explore the different opportunities offered, apply to the peer advising positions or complete our volunteer form, if you would like to assist on a limited basis. We hope to add a CCCP scholars/Peer Advisor alum network in the near future.
Thank you for considering being part of Team CCCP to build a better future for all of us.
Review our CCCP Student Staff Handout for more information.
Link to application under Application & Instructions tab.
Peer Advising
Peer Advisors are current UCLA students, usually community college transfers and the majority whom were CCCP Scholars. They are the heart of Team CCCP: community college stigma disruptors, transfer pride ambassadors and agents for social change and justice. During the summer, peer advisors along with the full-time staff plan, develop and implement the entering activities for CCCP Scholars, in-person and/or virtually. Peer advisors mentor/femtor community college students, motivating them to consider top tier research institutions like UCLA by sharing their own stories, resources and strategies on navigating the transfer process. CCCP provides mandatory training that includes an introduction to Critical Race Theory in Education and a Transfer Receptive Culture.
The CCCP student staff positions are very competitive. Please review the requirements and expectations; application and interview process, including deadlines; and the expected time commitment along with the intentional communal benefits. If you are not selected during this cycle, we will keep your application on file for future openings.
Peer Advisor General Requirements
Student staff play a key role in the success of our programs: We are looking for energetic student leaders who can be role models for a diverse group of students — Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) — who are enrolled in community colleges all over California.

Volunteer Opportunities
The Center for Community College Partnerships offers UCLA students the opportunity to network with prospective transfer students. CCCP is dedicated to making UCLA a place of community and understanding for students coming from underrepresented backgrounds.
Volunteering allows for UCLA students to give back and support community college students and the communities in which they come from. In addition, it provides an opportunity for those CCCP Scholars that have been admitted and enrolled at UCLA to complete the required 20 volunteer hours per year. CCCP creates a setting in which volunteers and students can grow together and learn from one another. Volunteers will assist us in virtual ways, whether it is providing tech support during webinars or by participating in panels, etc. Please join our CCCP Volunteer List to be notified of upcoming volunteer opportunities.
