How to Prepare for Your Appointment
To get the most out of your advising session, make sure to bring:

Any documents or worksheets from previous advising sessions.

Any useful information you have about transfer requirements (if you’re hoping to transfer your credits from FRCC to another college or university).
-
A copy of your Degree Check in eWOLF—an online tool that helps you track your academic progress.
