Academic Advising and Planning

(706) 379-5230 | registrar@yhc.edu

All incoming students are pre-assigned an academic advisor. For incoming first-year students, their Mountain Lion 1000 instructor will be their academic advisor; students will later transition to a faculty advisor within their major. It is vital that transfer students declare a major as soon as possible.

Students are required to attend an academic advising session each semester to be approved to register for classes for the upcoming semester. Prior to an advising session, students should review core and major (and minor, if applicable) requirements on their Academic Plan in Self-Service and place appropriate courses into their cart using self-service. During an academic advising session, students will have an opportunity to address academic concerns or questions. Students are encouraged to meet with their academic advisor throughout the year and not just during scheduled advising and registration.

If you have any questions regarding academic advising, please contact the Registrar’s Office in the Success Center on the lower level of the RCC.
