Academic Advising
About Advising
Academic Advisors offer one-on-one advising sessions to help with identifying degree requirements, developing long-term educational plans, assisting with maximum time-frame appeals, evaluating unofficial transcripts for new students, supporting students transferring on to a university, and much more.
Our team of academic advisors are here to help you develop your plan for reaching your educational goals. We can assist with class selection, degree requirements, major declaration, registration procedures, transfer information, college policies, and more.

Advising Tools
Catalog
The catalog is an outline of all policies, procedures, academic programs and general information about the college. A link for the most current and archived catalogs can be found at the bottom of every Clark College webpage.
For academic planning support, look at these specific areas of the catalog:
The Academic Plans section includes an overview description and summary of program requirements.
Course Descriptions are an A-Z listing of all courses offered at Clark and descriptions.
Distribution Lists can help guide students to specific courses that fulfill the distribution areas for multiple degrees. Distribution areas include communication, quantitative skills, humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, human relations, and more.
English & Math Placement Pathways
Assessment is vital to know where you will begin with your English and math courses and is required. The Math & English flowcharts detail the sequencing of math and English courses based on program of study.
Program Maps
These program maps showcase example scenarios of a student's possible term-by-term sequencing of classes for each degree or certificate - across our six areas of study. Program maps are suggested academic plans and should not be used in the place of regular academic advising. Your student entry method, placement, course availability, and program requirements are subject to change and transfer credit(s) may change your map/plan.
Areas of Study
The Areas of Study page provides a larger overview of what is offered at Clark and program information including orientations, applications and career information.
