Academic advising plays an essential role in helping students formulate sound educational and career plans based on their interests, abilities and academic classification. 

Students who work with an academic adviser increase their chances for satisfaction and success in completing an academic degree. Proper advising can help students grow intellectually while expediting their degree completion. Undergraduates and graduates are advised in the collegial unit of their major.

Students who have completed fewer than 30 semester hours are required to meet with an advisor to schedule classes.

Advisors can also help students with these situations:

• I do not know how to choose the best major for me
• I know what I want to major in, but I do not know what classes I need
• I want to know what the prerequisites are for the classes I need
• I am not doing well in my classes, and I do not know what I can do about it

The Geauga Campus and Twinsburg Center advisors are available both days and evenings.  Appointments can be scheduled by calling the Geauga Campus at (440) 834-4187, or the Twinsburg Center at (330) 487-0574.
