Your
Key To Success: Get Advised!Every new
student is assigned a dedicated ASA advisor who functions as a mentor
throughout his/her stay at the college. Advisors work with students to
identify and achieve their goals. They also provide direction to
students who are experiencing academic difficulties or want to pursue
independent avenues of inquiry beyond the content of their current
courses.
For many students, the primary obstacle to
success is personal or financial. Advisors are equally capable of
helping resolve these types of problems and can make referrals to
appropriate sources for assistance.
While every ASA
faculty and staff member is concerned with the success and well-being of
each student, the student's advisor is often in the best position to
understand student needs and concerns.
Students
should use their advisor as a personal resource and rely on this
mentor's experiences and expertise to help achieve their own goals and
objectives.
The Advisement Office makes every effort
to inform students of their curriculum requirements, especially those
relating to prerequisite courses. Our extensive student support services
are designed only to assist students in fulfilling these
requirements.
Though continuity of advisement is
important, students may, within reason, elect to change their advisor at
any time. Please contact us
