The Regional Admissions Counselors of California (RACC) is composed of college admission professionals who work with students and high school and independent counselors throughout California.

All of these out-of-state institutions are NACAC or WACAC members. They have dedicated the necessary resources for a regional office to serve California schools and provide information on educational opportunities out of state.

What can RACC do for you and your students?
