Everett Community College

Advising Services

Everett Community College offers an array of advising services. We hope that you will take advantage of the services that fit your style and needs. Research indicates that students who connect with an advisor are more likely to succeed in meeting their goals.

• Attend a Getting Started Session for prospective students, beginning at 6 p.m., in the Jackson Center.  Upcoming dates include: October 14th, November 4th, December 8th, January 6, 2009, February 17, 2009, March 9, 2009, April 6, 2009, May 5, 2009, June 15, 2009, and July 13, 2009.
  
• Review Curriculum Guides, located in Jackson Center, the Career Center (third floor, Parks Student Union Building), and the first floor of Shuksan Hall.  Curriculum guides are being updated to reflect EvCC's new course numbering scheme.  If you are continuing from enrollment in 2007-08 to enrollment in 2008-09, you need to pay close attention to your class selection in order to avoid duplication or missing sequences in some courses; please meet with an advisor. 
  
• Attend an Information Session. Throughout the year, many of our technical career programs host information sessions. Dates and times are published in the quarterly class schedule and in the online calendar (click the Calendar tab above), or you may contact the Office of Enrollment Services at 425-388-9219.
  
• Meet with an Entry Advisor! "Getting Started" advising services are available in Enrollment Services. Call 425-388-9206 or 425-388-9106 to schedule an appointment.
  
• Meet with a Faculty Advisor in the Counseling, Advising and Career Center. Students who are undecided about their interests or goals can have a faculty advisor who will assist them understand how to select courses, become aware of transfer requirements, and learn about fields that may interest them. You can contact the Counseling, Advising and Career Center at 425-388-9263.
  
• Attend a “One-stop SOAR for SUCCESS” (Skills Assessment, Orientation, Advising and Registration).
  
• Meet with a Faculty Advisor in a particular subject area. Students who are fairly certain of their transfer or career goals should have regular contact with a faculty advisor. Advisors for each degree are listed on the particular curriculum guide.
  
• Ask questions through On-line Advising.
  
• Meet with a variety of university representatives. During each week every quarter we usually have one or two university representatives at information tables located in the Parks Building.
  
• Check out our University Transfer Advising Website.
  
• Enroll in a Career Planning Class. Each quarter, Everett Community College offers a class in career planning. Look in the Human Development section of the schedule.
  
• Visit the Lucy Booth, near the Espresso Bar in Parks for “drop-by” advising once per week, days and evenings.
