Pacific Oaks College, located in Pasadena, California, approximately 10 miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles, operates from a historic craftsman-style campus in a residential neighborhood. Founded in 1958 by a group of Quaker families, the institution maintains its origins in progressive education while focusing primarily on human development, education, marriage and family therapy, and social justice programs. The college specializes in non-traditional education formats, offering both on-campus and online programs designed for working professionals, with particular emphasis on early childhood education and teacher preparation. Students typically attend classes in hybrid or online formats, as Pacific Oaks primarily serves commuter and distance learning students rather than maintaining traditional residential facilities.
