Welcome Prospective Students and Visitors - below is information and events that may help you with your decision to attend the Southern California College of Optometry or to learn about Optometry.

Attention Pre-Optometry Students and Facebook Fans!!!

SCCO now has a Facebook Group designed just for you!  It is hosted by our Director of Admissions, Dr. Jane Ann Munroe. An SCCO graduate with twenty-nine years of clinical experience, Dr. Munroe hopes to help students not only with the admissions process, but with their questions about optometry as a career choice. 

Here’s how you join:  go to www.facebook.com and open a free, personal Facebook account.  Once you have created your own personal profile page, do a search for the “Official Pre-Optometry Group Southern California College of Optometry” and the search will produce the group’s Facebook page.  Dr. Munroe will need to approve your request before you can join the group.  You will be able to post questions and comments on “The Wall” and join the discussion forum. 

We will look forward to having you join!

If you would like a campus tour or personal help with admissions questions, please make an appointment by contacting the Student Affairs Office at 714.449.7444 or bsanchez@scco.edu.
