Academic Advising Programs & Services (AAPS): Advising Outreach Services Spring 2021

AAPS Walk-in Advising:

For students who need support in planning a change of major outside their current college or program, refer them to our AAPS Walk-In Advising here. Click “Location and Hours: AAPS Walk-In Advising” for details. We are continuing to offer AAPS Walk-In Advising in a virtual format this Spring 2021 to serve students exploring and needing to plan toward a new intended major. Referrals can also be made using the GPS Alerts feature. (Within the GPS system, select “Issue An Alert” and then from drop down menu, “Walk-In Advising for AAPS – Alert Only.”)

Inter-College Transfer (ICT) Program:

The Inter-College Transfer (ICT) Program provides students the opportunity to work with an experienced cross-curricular advisor to explore majors and work towards meeting CODA requirements to change majors. If you have students who are interested in changing majors outside of your college or program and would be a good “fit” for the ICT Program, please refer them to our ICT program site. Alternately, you can make a referral using the GPS Alerts feature. (Within the GPS system, select “Issue An Alert” and then from drop down menu, “Inter-College Transfer (ICT) Program Referral.”)
