Academic Advising is important to Student Success! 
 

New Mexico Junior College encourages all students to meet with an Enrollment Advisor before registering for classes. Our Enrollment Advisors provide comprehensive academic advising to help new students get started on the right path.

Continuing students are paired with a dedicated Enrollment Advisor based on their last name or declared major/program of study. These Advisors work one-on-one with students to develop an academic plan aligned with their unique goals and needs.

During advising sessions, the Enrollment Advisor will work with the student to go over their degree or certificate plan. Following this degree plan helps ensure students stay on track and make steady progress toward graduation. Students are strongly advised to meet regularly with their  Enrollment Advisor to review their plan, monitor their academic standing, and make any necessary adjustments.
