Meet with an Advisor Early

Advisors are available year-round, not just during registration!

To avoid long wait times and last-minute stress, we recommend meeting with an advisor early in the semester—September for Spring planning and February for Summer and Fall.

Meeting early allows you to:

• Plan the right courses for your goals
• Get them approved in Registration Hub
• Be ready before registration opens

What Advisors Can Help You With:

Academic advisors are here to support your success. They can help you:

• Choose a degree or certificate that fits your goals
• Build your academic pathway
• Assist with transfer planning if you’re continuing to another college or university.
• Connect with campus resources like Tutoring and Career Services
• Understand how to raise your GPA if you're on academic probation
