ACADEMIC ADVISEMENT
The faculty and staff at QVCC are committed to providing the highest quality of academic advising to ensure students successfully structure their academic programs. Students begin by completing an advising information sheet when they enroll: then, an academic advisor is assigned to each student enrolled in a degree or certificate. Advisors and students work together to develop and monitor an educational plan that is consistent with students’ stated goals. Students meet with their advisors by appointment to discuss issues of interest or concern, such as
- the student’s program of study or their courses,
- the student’s future plans for transferring to other colleges,
- the student’s preparation to enter the workforce,
- issues related to their academic success at QVCC, among which may be referral to other within-the-college or within-the-community resources as appropriate.
Students should meet with an advisor regularly to
- Learn more about your chosen field of study; keep abreast of important issues as they surface in your major,
- Learn more about the scheduling of offerings for courses in your program of study so you can take courses in the right sequence,
- Find out how to best use all the free services QVCC has to offer you as a student,
- Get advice on academic issues that affect your chances for success at QVCC,
- Learn about transfer articulations QVCC has with other colleges and universities; prepare yourself for a smooth transfer,
- Prepare yourself for registration (in October or November for the spring semester and in April or May for the fall semester)
- Maximize the effectiveness of the time you spend at QVCC.
To meet with your advisor:
- To find out the name of your advisor, you may use one of the following options: Use Web for students, or contact the Learning and Student Development Office, or contact the Willimantic Center.
- To make an appointment with your advisor, contact him or her using his or her email address.
- Ask the faculty secretary in Danielson (Ext. 345) or the receptionist in Willimantic for a listing of your advisor’s office hours, leave a message for the advisor to return your call, or ask for the e-mail address of your advisor.
- Prepare for your meeting with your advisor; bring to the meeting any materials you think might aid you and your advisor in your discussions.
