Academic Advising

The Academic Advising Office is a supportive space where students are valued for their unique strengths and potential. Advisors build positive, trusting relationships and guide students through the six phases of Appreciative Advising: Disarm (making students feel welcome), Discover (learning about students’ strengths), Dream (exploring goals), Design (creating a plan), Deliver(offering support), and Don’t Settle (encouraging growth). This office is committed to helping students thrive academically and personally, celebrating each step of their journey. Throughout these six phases advisors guide students successfully through their program of study to graduation or through a guided pathway where students are able to transfer to a four-year college or university.
