NIGHT CLASSES
Of course we offer night classes. In fact, we offer them in both in-person and online formats. Take a look at the list of classes

West offers a wide selection of 8-week classes that meet requirements for graduation, university transfer and your major. By taking just two classes in Fall Session #1 and two classes in Fall Session #2*, you are considered a Full-time Student which may make you eligible for additional financial aid and other benefits available to full-time students.
*each class must be 3 or more units
