Academic Advising
Academic Advisors are available to current and prospective Lethbridge College students. You can schedule an in-person or telephone appointment.
Things to bring to your advising appointment:
- personal identification (driver's licence or Lethbridge College student ID)
- educational documents: transcripts, certificates, mid-term grades, etc.
- a friend or family member, the first appointment will cover a great deal of information, a second set of ears can really help when you are talking about your options later.
- a list of questions for your advisor
- a pen and something to write on
- any career research with you
What happens at my first appointment?
- Your advisor will introduce themselves.
- You will be taken to the advisor's office from the waiting area.
- The advisor will ask you what information you are looking for and what they can do to help.
- If you are looking for a lot of information, the advisor will break the information into two appointments, so that they have time to do research for you.
- Depending on what you already know about post-secondary education, the advisor will cover everything from career research activities to long term planning for graduate studies.
- After you leave, the advisor will make detailed notes on your student file. When you return, the advisor will remember what you discussed in the past, or you can see a new advisor and they will be able to pick up where the other one left off.
