WELCOME TO THE ADVISING CENTER!

The Advising Center is available to assist students whose advisor may not be available or who are designated "special" or "dually enrolled." The Advising Center also assists students with administrative procedures such as change of advisors, course withdrawal notices, audit procedures, and drop/add forms. Special evening hours are available during registration days. To ensure equal educational opportunities, the office also provides services for students with disabilities who qualify under ADA guidelines.

ACADEMIC ADVISING MISSION STATEMENT

The primary purpose of the academic advising program is to assist students in the development of meaningful educational plans that are compatible with their life goals. The ultimate responsibility for making decisions about educational plans rests with the individual student. However, the academic advisor collaborates with the student to identify and assess alternatives, to introduce college resources, and to discuss the effects of program decisions.
