Advising Model of Service Delivery
Dear COLFA
Student:
In an effort to better serve
our students; our advising center is changing our service
delivery model. Beginning on June 1, 2007, our advisors will
begin visiting with students by appointment only. By meeting
with students in an appointment format, you and your advisor
will be provided better opportunities to build a partnership.
In addition to this change, we will also begin using an
advising syllabus and will expect each student to maintain an
advising portfolio in which you will keep all of your
important information pertaining to your degree program. You
will be expected to bring your portfolio with you to each
advising appointment.
We will have an “express”
advisor available each day to assist students with TRUE quick
questions. If the “express” advisor determines that your
question will take more than 5 minutes, he or she will assist
you in making an appointment with your designated advisor.
(You will also be expected to bring your portfolio with you to
“express” advising.)
During peak registration
periods, we will have more than one “express” advisor
available, but we will no longer see students on a walk-in
basis as before; therefore, we encourage you to schedule your
appointments early and prior to the months of November and
April.
We sincerely hope that these
changes in service improve our partnerships with our students
and enhance your college experience. As always, we look
forward to meeting with you and guiding you towards the goal
of graduation.
Sincerely,
The COLFA
Advising Center Team
