Advising

Your advisor is available to answer most any question or concern that you may have. She is here to help smooth the way so that you can keep your focus on your education.

Academic Advising

Your advisor is available to you with registration by suggesting courses, course sections, and course loads. Mid-semester progress reports are reviewed with your advisor and in some cases, steps for improvement/assistance are suggested. Your advisor is also available to guide you through course withdrawal decisions.

Career Advising

Your advisor can help you explore options for careers and majors that are best for you. You advisor will guide you to assessments and resources, and you can participate in our career workshops.

Transfer Advising

Your advisor can help you plan out your transfer process. We will help you look at majors, program requirements, admissions, finances and help you make the decision making process as smooth as possible.

Financial Aid Advising

While your advisor is not independently wealthy or one with her hands in the pockets of someone who is, she has some pretty good ideas about how to fund your education. She can direct you to government aid programs, private scholarship programs and to loan programs. Your advisor will guide you through the paperwork or direct you to someone who can.

Personal Advising

Your advisor provides referral and advocacy for additional services provided by other college programs and outside agencies.

 

Aids to Learning

We hope you are at school to learn and we want you to succeed. You are welcome to use any of the aids to learning that we provide. You may use them as much as you would like, though we do ask that you are also considerate of other Starting Point students.
