The Academic Advising Department supports the overall mission of Eastern Arizona College by providing a welcoming atmosphere and promoting individualized academic support, personal counseling, and career advising. We are committed to your success because your journey is our focus!
Our goal is to build relationships that optimize students’ potential through knowledgeable, consistent advising and support.
Academic advising is an educational process that, by intention and design, facilitates students understanding of the meaning and purpose of higher education and fosters their intellectual and personal development toward achieving academic success and lifelong learning (Nacada 2004).
Students are strongly encouraged to meet with academic advisors throughout the year and are encouraged to make appointments each semester to discuss their academic and career plans. Our Advisors are dedicated to assisting students in identifying their academic goals and educational plans, so they get the maximum benefit from their college experience and are prepared for life after EAC.
