Our Student Services
Academic advising is provided to students in all programs of study at
the College. Advisors give assistance to students in good academic standing,
meaning students who are not on academic probation or are not on a provisional
acceptance to the College. Academic advisors are faculty members from
different areas of the College. While the ultimate responsibility for
making decisions about personal goals and educational plans rests with
each student, advisors will identify and assess the various options that
are available to you.
- Discuss your educational and career goals in order to help you decide on what program or courses can benefit you the most.
- Assist you in selecting the appropriate courses to fulfill the requirements of your program.
- Serve as a source of information about institutional policies, procedures and programs.
For appointments, referrals and information related to all aspects of academic advising, student are urged to stop by the Academic Advising Center during office hours at the Main Campus, West Building, Room 1, first floor; call 215-751-8777; or email advising@ccp.edu. Academic advising is also available in all three of our Regional Centers.
Choosing Community College of Philadelphia is a wonderful step toward a positive future, and Academic Advising will help you achieve your academic and career goals.
