All degree-seeking students must meet with an advisor to select courses for each semester. An advisor not only helps you schedule classes, but also helps you develop an academic plan that works for you, refers you to campus resources, navigates college policies and procedures, and serves as a support throughout your academic journey and after graduation.

Academic advisors are available to assist you in selecting a Field of Interest to explore the degree and certificate options available in your chosen career field. Every Field of Interest represents a community of students, faculty and staff who will give you the information assistance and encouragement you need for success.

Explore the programs and advisors for each Field of Interest by selecting one of the options below:
