Determining Primary Advisors | Academic Advising Season

Determining Primary Advisors

Your “primary advisor” assists with registration and changes as you progress through your academic career in the BBA program.

30 Credit-hours or Less (Freshman)

An assigned staff advisor serves as your primary advisor to ensure you get started with the appropriate prerequisites for future course work.

30-74 Credit-hours (Sophomore / Junior)

You'll transition to a faculty mentor as your primary advisor to focus on co-curricular and extracurricular opportunities at GGC, and academic and professional plans after college. 

75 Credit-hours or More (Junior / Senior)

An assigned staff advisor, again, serves as your primary advisor to focus on scheduling and registration of your remaining course work. Your faculty mentor continues to offer professional and career mentoring.
