Students meet with academic advisors and together they create a Midterm Plan of Action.Students meet with our academic advisors and together create a Midtern Plan of Action. Students then have their Roadmap to complete the semester successfully. We also provide Academic Action Plans to assist students with their online learning system strategies.
Often, freshmen and sophomore students have not yet determined an academic major. Until a major is declared, the Student Success Center will serve as the academic advising home for those students. Our staff members are happy to serve deciding students with course selection, registration, and academic planning. Additionally, we have resources available to assist in the decision-making process of declaring a major and determining a career choice. Once a decision is made regarding an academic major, students should come to the Student Success Center to officially declare (or change) their major! If you have any questions, please come see us on the second floor of the Library!
