Advising

All students are required to meet with an academic advisor prior to registration until they have earned 28 credit hours and are in Good Standing academically. Every degree-seeking student is assigned an advising team made up of a First Year Advisor and a Faculty Advisor.

Advisors help students with schedule building and adjustment, transfer planning, career exploration and development, changes of major, academic recovery, and other issues impacting academic success. First Year Advisors are located in the College Welcome Center. Faculty Advisors are typically faculty within the student’s program of study. Advisor assignments can be found in the student’s My Northeast account and Degree Works.

While advisors provide guidance, final responsibility for planning courses, meeting requirements, and observing regulations lies with the student. Students should read this catalog carefully as their source of information on requirements and regulations. Electives and/or substitutions must have the approval of the Advisor and/or Dean of the Division of the student’s program.
