Advisement Student Survival Tips

  •  Check our Frequently Asked Questions list
  • Register for classes early and keep a copy of the registration.
  • Attend every class. You have paid for each one of them. Didn't you plan to attend college so it can help you achieve some other goals? Successfully completing classes will help do just that even if you don't see the relevance at first.
  • Save all your receipts (for books, tuition, fees, etc.)
  • Get involved in some campus activity, club, organization.
  • See an advisor, counselor, or instructor at least once each semester to discuss your plans, goals, concerns, etc. At some point in their lives, they have done what you are doing now.
  • If you seem to be having any academic problems in the first few weeks, take action immediately.
    • Talk to your instructor.
       
    • Sign up for free tutoring--see Learning Support Center.
       
    • Talk to an advisor or counselor.
       
    • Don't just stop coming to classes.
       
  • Save some time for relaxing with friends.
