Advising
Plan Ahead. Advising Has Changed.
Aim. Plan. Achieve.
Advising is now by appointment year-round--no more "Walk Ins" for peak registration AND beginning with Summer and Fall 2026 registration, many continuing students in credential-seeking programs will have an advising hold placed on their account.
Some programs that have never had advising holds will continue to be exempt.
What Does This Mean for You?
Each semester before registering for classes, you’ll need to meet with your assigned Success Coach. After your meeting, the hold will be lifted for that semester and you will be able to register.
Why Are We Doing This?
We want to make sure you:
- Choose the right classes for your program
- Don’t take extra or unnecessary credits
- Stay on the fastest path to graduation
- Get connected to support and resources early
What You Need to Do
Schedule an appointment to meet with your Success Coach or Advisor each semester!
We’re excited about this next step because it puts YOU first.
Appointments for Summer and Fall 2026 academic planning are now open.

- Explain various educational pathways
- Confirm your academic and career goals
- Identify classes that will meet those goals
- Assist with the online registration process
- Inform you of important campus and community resources helpful for your success
