How to get advising
There are many advising opportunities available. From admission to graduation students are encouraged to meet with an advisor every quarter.
New students are welcomed to Edmonds College with a New Student Advising (NSA) session. During NSA, an advisor will help you to understand your placements, connect your strengths and goals with Edmonds College programs of study, and teach you how to register for classes online. Check out the NSA schedule online.
Students will learn more about their program of study in a program specific advising session. Advising sessions are open to prospective, new and continuing students. During a session, an advisor will lead discussion about your program of study/academic department, answer group questions, and provide time for individual academic advising. You will meet fellow peers in your program and plan your next steps! Check out the current schedule online.
Faculty advisors bring valuable expertise related to programs of study, courses, university programs, and the job market. They are invaluable as mentors for students and they can provide insight into course content and course selection. Check in with the Advising Resource Center to see if your faculty advisors are currently offering advising.
Lobby drop-in advising is best suited for quick questions and immediate needs to help plan your next steps! Check out the weekly schedule online.
