Colorado Mountain College's On-line Guide to Academic Advising

Welcome to what we hope will become an useful part of your academic advising experience. Through these pages,we hope to make academic advice, information and support as easy to find as we possibly can. As a supplement to the assistance provided by your academic advisor, this guide will give you immediate access to information and resources useful in making sound educational decisions.

Please keep in mind that the information we have made available here is important to your success at Colorado Mountain College and to your understanding of student rights and responsibilities but we do not expect it to be sufficient. There is some advice that can only be given in person and there are some decisions concerning your educational goals that can best be made during face-to-face discussions with your academic advisor.
