Academic Advising
Academic Advising provides students with assistance in registration, choice of major and general orientation to college life. Faculty advisors (depending upon major) and/or counselors assist students with academic/career redirection and assistance with academic difficulties.
Faculty Advising Program
The Faculty Advising Program is coordinated by Counseling Services. The purpose of the program is to match students with a faculty member to serve as their advisor. The student meets with the faculty advisor to schedule appropriate classes for registration as well as to discuss transfer and career plans. |
