Student Status
Undecided Students
Understanding yourself is key to the career decision-making process and in selecting a major. To find your “niche” in life, you need to know your interests, values, and skills. Let’s add personality to the mix. So in starting your journey, ask yourself this question… Who am I? The answer will provide clues to your future.
If you need more help in choosing a career or Major, you may also meet with an Academic Advisor.
With the help of an advisor, you can:
- Define and refine educational goals and objectives, and understand the consequences of alternative courses of action.
- Be provided information regarding the nature and purpose of higher education.
- Be encouraged to become an active participant in your educational planning and college life.
- Make appropriate course, certificate, and degree selections.
To schedule an appointment to meet with an advisor, you may book online, or call us at 928-344-7624.
If you have declared a major, you are encouraged to contact a Division or Program Advisor. Division and Program Advisors have specialized knowledge about your area of study and your specific major and can more accurately advise you in making decisions that will help you be more successful.
