If you are undecided about a major, career or transfer to a university, the advising staff can help you make the right choice. College advisers (ATSC) can administer career interest, personality and other assessments to guide students in the decision-making process.
For those who are interested in transferring to a college or university offering the bachelor’s degree, the ATSC has a wide array of services and resources to assist you.
Students have access to catalogs, applications and course equivalency listings to help facilitate their transition to a four year college or university. The Center has resource materials to assist students in selecting the appropriate college or university.
Staff members follow-up on Advising and Transfer Center users, keeping them abreast of their progress toward meeting specific admission criteria
for the colleges or universities to which they want to transfer.
Advisers monitor:
- Application deadlines
- College representative visits
- Open Houses
- Scholarship opportunities
