ACCESS AND SUCCESS FOR STUDENTS
ACING THE ADVISING PROCESS T
ransitioning to college can be a complex process for students to navigate on their own. CLC’s new academic advising model aims to improve the student experience with a high-touch
personal connection. A team of 25 full-time Academic Success Advisors (ASA), assigned to specialized academic fields of interest, guide students on their academic journey. ASAs help students from the first day of classes to their graduation from CLC. Students have access to their assigned ASA all year round, making sure they can get help during every step of the process. They assist in academic, transfer and career planning, along with personal, financial and resource support.

“The new ASA model creates a holistic advising experience,” said Director of Advising and Retention Christine Lewis. “ASAs are meant to be a go-to person for the students until they graduate or complete their academic goal. Not every student knows what they want to do on the first day of class, and the ASAs are here to support students in their decision-making processes, helping them develop a personalized success plan and stay on track with their plan.”
