Advising students who may be struggling with personal or academic issues can make the difference between success and failure—between a student withdrawing from school or completing the program and going on to gain employment in the field.  And that’s why our Dean of Academic Support and Advising, instructors and key members of our administrative staff are available to serve our students at any time.
