Academic Advising

The purpose of academic advising is to support students from enrollment to completion of academic programs. Student Success Mentors will help provide support during the first year for new Associate students. Advisors help students understand all degree requirements and options to meet those requirements. Advisors also assist students in understanding policies and procedures, and communicating with departments such as Financial Aid and Student Account Services.

An academic advising team is assigned to each individual student and advises that student throughout the duration of his or her academic program. Advisors are available to meet one-on-one with students face to face, through email, by phone, or via video conference.

It is important that students maintain contact with their academic advising team in order to ensure timely progression toward degree completion as well as appropriate scheduling for maximum financial aid benefit.
