About This School

Los Angeles Harbor College is a public institution located in Wilmington, California with approximately 6,496 undergraduate students enrolled. In-state tuition is $1,238 per year. Typical graduates earn $38,900 within 10 years of enrollment.

Los Angeles Harbor College (LAHC) is a public community college in Wilmington, California. It is one of two community colleges serving the South Bay region of Los Angeles. LAHC serves mainly students from Harbor City, Carson, San Pedro, Gardena, Lomita, Wilmington and the Palos Verdes Peninsula.

Worth considering if you're from the South Bay area and want an affordable path to transfer or a career credential without taking on major debt. With median earnings of $38,900 a decade after enrollment, graduates land in a modest income range, so this school makes the most sense as a stepping stone to a four-year university rather than a final destination. Its small enrollment of about 6,500 students means a more personal feel than larger community colleges, which can be a real advantage for students who need accessible support.
