Academic Advising & Counseling

Faculty Advising

Faculty members assist students who have completed the Texas Success Initiative (TSI) and who have a declared major in the faculty member’s academic discipline. (Students who are General Studies majors will be advised by student services counselors and advisors.) ACC recommends that students see a faculty member in their major at least twice while attending ACC. The first time should occur before students enroll in their second semester at ACC (if the student has completed TSI). Students should also see a faculty member in their major for an advising session when the student has completed 75% of credit hours for his or her transfer plan, ACC credit certificate, or ACC degree. Academic advising by faculty members includes assisting students with:

Information about career possibilities
Preparing an educational plan that is consistent with students’ career and life goals
Selection and sequencing of courses at ACC
Understanding and navigating the program and institutional requirements at ACC
Referrals to ACC resources that will help students achieve success in academics and their chosen career.

Contact the appropriate Department for more information.
