24 Role of Academic Advisors and International Student Advisors
Academic Advisors work directly with NC students. Academic Advisors are assigned to each program offered at NC which means you have a dedicated Advisor that is available to provide you guidance and support as you progress towards Graduation. If you are an international student you would see your International Student Advisor (ISA) to discuss your academic and transition needs
An Academic Advisor can…
- Provide specific information about your program
- Connect you with additional college supports, and provide tips for academic success
- Assess and discuss your academic progress and standing
- Assist with understanding Niagara College policies and procedures
- Help you establish realistic educational goals and future planning
- Provide guidance for successful progression towards graduation
- International Student Advisors (ISA) assist with Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada applications
- You have concerns about your progression in a course, or in your program
- You need additional support (i.e. Peer Tutoring, Academic Support Workshops)
When should you see an Academic Advisor?
- You’re interested in changing programs
- You’re looking to withdraw from your program
- You require an individualized academic plan
