CAREER AND ACADEMIC ADVISING
Rowan-Cabarrus Community College considers academic and career advising essential to student success. The goal of Career and Academic Advising is to assist and support students in exploring their educational goals, learning about academic requirements, and progressing toward degree completion. As a new or returning student, it’s important to build a relationship with an academic advisor. An advisor can help you create an academic plan by helping you select appropriate courses and create a class schedule for fall, spring, or summer semesters. An advisor can help you achieve your academic goals.
Our mission is to promote student success by empowering students to take responsibility for achieving their educational and career goals.
Advisors can assist you in the following ways:
+ Plan a path to academic success
+ Provide general information on special services including academic remediation, admission, placement testing, courses of study and registration
+ Interpret placement test scores and recommend appropriate classes
+ Work with students on schedules, drop/adds, withdrawals, change of major, waivers, graduation requirements, etc.
+ Explain the transfer process and transferring courses to and from Rowan-Cabarrus
