Your advisor is a dedicated partner and guide throughout your college journey, committed to supporting your academic and personal success. Students are encouraged to follow their advisor’s recommendations to ensure timely and accurate progress toward graduation and/or transfer. Not following this guidance may lead to delays in graduation, challenges with transfer, or enrollment in courses that do not align with your academic goals.   

Students should schedule an appointment with their assigned academic advisor each semester to ensure they remain on track to complete their degree on time.  

Academic advisors can provide critical information about:  

• When specific courses are offered (e.g., fall-only or spring-only)  
• Prerequisite requirements and course sequencing  

Meeting regularly with your advisor helps you make informed decisions and avoid delays in your academic progress. Consistent advising empowers you to make knowledgeable choices that support both your academic and professional goals.
