Advising

Academic Advising

Academic advisors provide guidance to all students by supporting the exploration of academic and career goals; by helping students understand and navigate program requirements and college policies, and by supporting students in developing and realizing academic, career and transfer plans.

New students are advised by professional academic advisors for the purpose of placement and creation of their first semester schedule of courses.

Current students are assigned to departmental faculty advisors or professional academic advisors who can assess academic progress and recommend further course selections.

Advising staff are available through the Academic Center for Enrichment and at each campus location. Meet the staff below!

Remote Advising

You can find your assigned academic advisor under the Advising tab on the Student Planning page. Email your advisor to schedule a time and method to connect remotely.
