Overview of Our Services


Academic Advising

Our academic advisors’ goal is students’ academic success, and we help them with classes, navigating pass/fail options, changing majors, and looking at other options. Academic Advising is set up through Navigate.


Drop-In Meetings for Academic Advising & Career Coaching

We offer our drop-in hours of 1:30 pm to 4:00 pm; students can still speak with an Academic Advisor or Career Coach. We offer both in-person and virtual meetings. No appointment is necessary.


Career Coaching and Assessments

Students can schedule a career coaching appointment with us for career coaching and assessments via Handshake. At these one-and-one meetings, we can help navigate resources and assessment tools to aid in the ongoing career decision-making process. From resume reviews to finalizing a major and career pathway, we are here to help you discover your best self.


Tutoring

Students can use ASCC tutoring services & our tutoring database to find an available tutor to speak with based on the subject they need help with. Tutoring meetings are offered as in-person and via Zoom.
