GETTING STARTED - Step 4: Counseling

Counseling
  • New students
    All new students must attend a New Student Counseling Group Workshop. Call 395-4421 to make an appointment for the mandatory Workshop. New Student Counseling Group Workshops fill quickly, particularly during registration periods.
  • Continuing students
    Continuing or returning students may visit a drop-in counselor or advisor. Drop-ins are available every day on a first come, first served basis. In order to maximize your chances of being seen during peak registration periods, it is recommended that you come to the Counseling Center early in the morning.
  • Transfer Students
    Transferring students refer to the Transfer Services website
  • Online counseling/advising

  • Online counseling/advising is designed for short questions only. Generally, responses are returned within 24 to 48 hours. Online counseling/advising does not take the place of a counseling session. If you need to see a counselor, drop by or call the counseling department at (661) 395-4421.
