Tarrant County College . Trinity River Campus . Academic Advising Syllabus
WHAT IS ACADEMIC ADVISING? Academic Advising is a relationship between the advisor and the advisee that is built on trust and respect, and one that allows the advisor to help guide the advisee through their college career. Advisors here at Trinity River Campus are here to offer you more than assistance with registering for classes, we are here to help you find your passion, to find the groups and activities on campus that excite you, and to of course help you meet and exceed your academic goals. The advisors know that every student is different, and we look forward to getting to know you so that we can together discover what makes you tick. The advisors and the advisees act as active partners in this process, and we will work together to manage your time here at Trinity River Campus in the best way possible. We know how exciting, overwhelming, and possibly stressful college can be, and we look forward to working with you when you arrive!
