Who needs to be advised?

At the College of Staten Island, ALL STUDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO BE ADVISED.

When do I need to be advised?

Other opportunities on which you may need advisement are:

  • Before registering for classes
  • Before declaring a major and/or minor
  • When changing a major and/or minor
  • Before dropping classes
  • Before swapping classes
  • Before applying for graduation
