Academic Advising

Academic advising is an ongoing process of assessing and evaluating your needs, based on your goals, to help you navigate through your academic career. At Mitchell Community College, academic advisors are faculty members and counselors.

In addition to aiding you with scheduling, course selection and course load, academic advisors encourage you to become self-reliant and to make informed decisions; set realistic goals; and develop thinking, learning, and life management skills for your current and future needs.

Your academic advisor will not make decisions for you, but he or she may serve as a consultant, helping you make the appropriate academic and career decisions for you.

Your advisor is your personal academic and career consultant.

Your advisor is available to promote your growth and development as a student. He or she will help you assess your interests and abilities; examine your educational goals; and develop short-term and long-range plans to achieve your objectives.
