We recognize that all of our students need a little encouragement and advice from time to time. Therefore, we have two Centers on campus with professional staff who are eager to help. The Student Success Center and the Advising Center provide students with direction and support as they enter the college environment. Our new students begin planning their college journey with an academic advisor from the Advising Center. Once classes begin, we encourage students to visit the Student Success Center for services such as free tutoring, as well as a unique opportunity to become a part of our TRIO-SSS program specifically designed to assist first-generation college students with their transition into and through the college process. Finally, we encourage students to get involved by joining and participating in the Student Government Association and other campus clubs.

Academic Advising

Our academic advisors specialize in program areas such as pre-health, advanced manufacturing, business, education, criminal justice, office systems, and other programs designed to prepare students for work upon graduation. They know the recommended courses and pathways in order to assist you in successfully planning personal goals toward earning a degree, diploma, or certificate. If your goal is to start here and move to a four-year school, your advisor will focus on helping you prepare for college transfer.

Counseling services

Because we believe in the value of supporting students in their personal goals, as well as their academic goals, the College provides confidential counseling services to discuss issues such as test anxiety, decision making and goal setting, multicultural concerns, stress management, time management, feelings of depression, relationship concerns, anger management issues, academic issues, or substance abuse concerns. In addition, a counselor can assist you in dealing with major life transitions such as divorce, marriage, or the death of a loved one. Our counselors will also assist with making referrals to local community agencies when necessary.

FREE Tutoring!

Free tutoring services are available for students in subject areas such as mathematics, science, accounting, Spanish, and computer-related courses. College students write a great deal so we have tutors who help students become stronger writers, critical thinkers, and citation experts. Taking advantage of free tutoring helps students stay on top of their coursework and improve their study skills. We also provide online tutoring through Smarthinking.com.

The Student Success Center and Advising Center staff are excited to welcome you to campus. We care about our students and we are here to help you succeed!
