Academic Advising

Student success navigators serve not only as academic advisors but as a student’s academic, financial and total resource advocate or coach.

They are part of a new initiative at the College focusing on student success. Students will have an assigned navigator to meet with for advising and any questions they may have. Navigators will serve as the “go-to” person to help students throughout the college experience.

Virtual Walk-In Advising

Tuesdays: 1 – 3 p.m.
Thursdays: 9:30 – 11:30 a.m.

Virtual walk-in advising will only be available during the times listed above. You will be admitted to a waiting room where you can meet one-on-one with a navigator.
