New Student Advising
All new students who have never attended college are required to meet with an academic advisor as part of the new student orientation. New student orientation will provide students with information about academic programs, and certificates and degree options. Students will also receive information and assistance needed to select and enroll in appropriate coursework, receive assistance with creating class schedules, and learn how to register for classes.
Continuing Student Advising
It is highly recommended that all continuing students meet with an advisor periodically as they progress through their educational programs. Advisors will help ensure students stay on track to achieve their educational goals. F-1 Visa students must meet with the International Student Advisor every semester prior to registration. Failure to do so may result in termination of their I-20.
On-line Advising
Students can email the online advisor at OnlineAdvisor@CCAurora.edu using their college assigned e-mail account. Replies are provided by the next business day or before.
Non-Degree Seeking Students
Students who are enrolling in coursework for a job upgrade or personal development are also encouraged to contact an advisor prior to registration.
Financial Aid Student Advising
All students receiving financial aid should contact an advisor prior to registering for classes to ensure satisfactory progress toward degree or certificate objectives. Financial Aid pays only for coursework that applies directly to a degree or certificate.
