CCPS Undergraduate Advising Center Hours
---------------------------------- CCPS-UAC Fast Facts In addition to regular advising sessions with students, advising center staff have specific projects each month to further connect with CCPS students. Here we will highlight a few of them!
On December 23rd, advising center staff reviewed Winter 2011 schedules for 294 students after Fall 2010 grades were official to ensure students were appropriately registered for this semester. After this review it was determined that 86 of the students were inappropriately enrolled and were sent contact regarding recommended changes they should make to their schedule. The other students were sent contact reminding them of our services and that we are available to assist them.

Happy New Year!

We have a lot of wonderful things that are happening this semester so keep reading....and watch for our monthly updates on the first Monday of every month! Back to top^
myPath Degree Audit Tool
Effective January 10th, all students will use the myPath degree audit tool found in myBanner. Previously students who entered GVSU before 2010 were using a different degree audit program. We understand there may be some confusion and questions about this new tool from students who have not been using it. Please direct these students to our office for an advising session where we will help them review the new tool and learn how to use all of the features and benefits to accurately track their own degree progress.

Advising for Students on Academic Review
On January 24th we will make contact with all students in our college that are currently in academic review standing. As these students will have a registration hold which requires an advisor's signature during the advanced registration process, we are encouraging them to meet with their academic advisor early. We will provide step-by-step details of what these students need to do. If a student makes contact with you regarding this issue or has questions, please refer them to our office for assistance.

Winter 2011 Student Success Seminars
The CCPS Undergraduate Advising Center Student Success Seminars kick off on February 3rd! It's never too early to encourage a student to RSVP for one of our workshops which include sessions on time management skills, study skills and test taking strategies, or creating a comprehensive academic plan to improve their academic standing. These workshops are open to any student in any program! To help us plan, RSVP’s are required. MORE INFORMATION Back to top^
