Academic Advisement
Each matriculated student is assigned an academic advisor with expertise in the student’s degree or certificate program. Academic advisors are MVCC faculty members and can be contacted during their posted faculty office hours or by telephone or e-mail. Academic advisors help students understand program requirements, select appropriate courses, prepare for careers or transfer, and gain access to any special resources needed (tutoring, counseling, etc.).
Students are encouraged to see their academic advisors regularly, and especially before pre-scheduling each term. You can find out the name of your academic advisor by logging into your SIRS account your advisor's name appears at the top of your Plan of Study.
New students may request an initial academic advising appointment once they have completed placement testing and received an acceptance letter from the Admissions Office. For an appointment call 315.792.5608 in Utica or 315.334.7709 in Rome.
