Academic Advising, Career and Transfer Services
Academic Advising, Career & Transfer Services (AACTS) provides a holistic approach to empowering students to discover and achieve their academic, transfer, and career goals. Specific services include following:
Academic Advisement
Academic Advisement services are available to all students at Finger Lakes Community College. Full- and part-time matriculated students are assigned a faculty academic advisor and a professional academic advisor who will assist them with course selection, academic planning, goal setting and questions related to their program of study. If a student is a member of a specialized program or cohort (e.g., EOP, Athletics, Campus Centers, Academic Probation or any other population and/or programs as determined by the College), they may have additional staff/faculty members providing support. Matriculated students are required to meet with one of their assigned academic advisors prior to course registration each semester. Students who wish to change their degree program are encouraged to meet with a staff member in Academic Advising, Career and Transfer Services to review degree requirements.
Career Services
As part of Academic Advising, Career and Transfer Services, Career Service is available to all students and alumni. Making career and educational choices requires planning. Career Service advisors can help students and alumni with career decision-making processes through assessments, exploration, and guidance. When you are ready to enter the workforce, we can assist with preparation for the job search including resumes, cover letters, job search, and interviewing. Our Online resources provide assistance 24/7 and include career assessments, resources, and tools to make your job search easier. We also provide programming and job fairs that are open to all.
