The Student Success Center is a “one stop” location on campus for meeting students’ needs. Services include academic advising for all undergraduate students, new student orientation, degree audit, and transfer evaluations. Students can find information about academic program options and requirements, how to select or change majors, degree progress reports, and a variety of other services designed to help students achieve their desired degrees.
New Student Orientation
orientation@uccs.edu or (719) 255-3098
Orientation programs are held preceding each term to acquaint new students with UCCS academic programs, out-of-class activities, and campus services. Academic advising, registration for classes, and an introduction to campus life constitute the main orientation activities. New students are required to attend an orientation session before being permitted to register for classes. For more information, go to: http://www.uccs.edu/orientation.
Academic Advising
Academic advising is available to all undergraduate students on an ongoing basis through the Student Success Center. Advisors are available to review degree requirements, course options, various academic programs and a wide variety of other academic advising questions. The Student Success Center offers walk-in advising every Monday from 9:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. (as long as the campus is open). Walk-in meetings are not scheduled (first-come, first-served), and these sessions are 15-minute meetings. To schedule an appointment (Tuesday through Friday), please contact the Student Success Center.
Degree Progress Reports
Degree progress reports are available to inform students of their academic progress, requirements met and requirements remaining for both their departmental major and their college. Students should review these reports regularly and refer to them when registering for courses every semester. Students should be familiar with their degree progress when seeking academic advising. Students can access their degree progress reports by going to the Student Online Center from the campus Web site.
