Academic Advising

Finding your academic advisor information

Your advisor may be a faculty member or an advisor in an Advising Center or satellite campus.

You will find your assigned academic advisor’s information in several places:

• GTC4me > Student Planning > My Progress
  Your advisor’s name will be listed in the top right hand corner of the Student Planning screen.
• Blackboard > Starfish
  Your advisor’s name and e-mail will be listed in Starfish under your Success Network.
• Full list of academic advisors

Meeting with your advisor

• It is to your advantage to see your advisor before you register for classes so that you can be sure you’re on target to meet your goals.
• To get an advising appointment that meets your schedule, plan ahead and schedule an appointment to meet with your advisor.
• Prepare for your advising appointment by reviewing the requirements for your major. Also, you should create a schedule, which includes school, work, and family, so that you and your advisor can plan the best schedule for you.
