Academic Advising

Advising and educational planning at the College is a collaborative effort between you and your academic advisor. To be successful, students are required to meet with their advisor prior to registration for the next semester and prior to withdrawing from a class. Advisors also help students with career planning, choosing a program of study, understanding program requirements, transfer planning and financial aid. Advisors will also help if you experience academic difficulties by making referrals to academic support services.
