Location: The school is to the far east of Los Angeles, at the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains. The school is within the Citrus College building, which is next to Azusa Pacific University. The college is in the city of Glendora, and offers a great combination of suburban comfort and safety along with access to all of the attractions and glamour of Los Angeles. Around the college is a performing arts centre, lots of commercial restaurants, shops and grocery stores.

Moving around the area: There is a light rail station, 10 minutes from the college. This is on the gold line, which goes all the way to downtown Los Angeles. This train ride would take around 45 minutes. Once in downtown Los Angeles, it is easy to visit all the attractions there including the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The Getty and Hollywood, by using the public transportation links in the city. There are also lots of bus routes around the college that connect to nearby cities.
