Here are some Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) many students have. If you do not find the answer you are looking for, feel free to call us or stop by and we will answer your questions to the best of our ability.
How to Use Our Services
There is no fee for our service. While many students prefer to make an appointment with an advisor or counselor, we also have times set aside for students who drop in. If you have a particular advisor or counselor you would like to see, please tell us. Occasionally, you may experience a short wait to be seen. Walk-in waiting time becomes more common in the months of November and December as new students prepare for the spring semester. Please give our front desk staff as much information as possible so that you can be efficiently and effectively served. Be aware that students who have made appointments will have priority.
