Our Academic Advisors help you stay on track and graduate while getting the most of your time at MCC.

Academic Advisors are available to discuss your academic and career goals, to answer questions about your degree, make referrals to on-campus services, create an academic plan for your success, and to help you navigate college successfully.

  • Academic Advisors will help you develop an academic plan but we will not tell you what days and times to take a class or register you for classes.
  • The Career & Enrollment Center (CEC) will assist students with scheduling days and times in your Backpack and assist you with registration.
  • Please ensure all your questions are addressed during your Advising session as the CEC staff will not provide Academic Advising.
