Ivy Tech Community College Richmond Academic Advising Center is committed to engaging students in collaborative, supportive and meaningful partnerships. Our goal is to provide teaching, supporting, and learning, within the services that we make available in our Center. The Academic Advising team will assist students in achieving their personal, educational, and career goals while becoming self-directed and life-long learners.

The Academic Advising Center provides professional academic advising for community college students. It is a centralized resource for students, faculty, and staff. All students and potential students are welcome to contact the Academic Advising Center with questions pertaining to their educational goals. The objective of the Academic Advising Center is to ensure that students meet the goals and dreams they set and we are ready and eager to help all students with this process. The Advisors are knowledgeable and possess the skills and resources to assist students with their vision towards their academic career goals. 

Academic advising is required for all students. Before seeing an Academic Advisor for the first time, new students are required to complete a New Student Orientation (NSO). Your first meeting with your Academic Advisor happens during NSO. Academic advising begins with entry to the college and continues through a series of meetings each semester during the student's first year. Advisors walk new students through the initial process of orientation, advising, and registration, providing guidance and options for students to be successful. All new students should initially meet with an advisor in the Academic Advising Center. Students will work with the Academic Advising Center until they have accumulated 15 credit hours (100 level coursework or higher), upon which they will be referred to a Faculty Advisor in their declared area of interest. Students are encouraged to meet with their Academic Advisor or Faculty Advisor before registering for classes every semester.

The Ivy Tech Community College Richmond Advising Center's vision is to develop a partnership with new and continuing students. Included in this is a collaborative, supportive, learning environment that serves as the foundation for students to achieve their educational and career dreams. It is our belief, whether the students would be receiving a certificate, Associate Degree or transferring to a four-year institution that they will succeed at Ivy Tech. The Academic Advising Team is looking forward to assisting students with their educational endeavors.

I am a new student. Do I have to take placement tests? Yes, you must complete a COMPASS assessment in our Testing Center before you can register for classes. There are a few exceptions though. You do not need to take the COMPASS test if you have one of the following:

Scores on the SAT, PSAT, or ACT that can be substituted for the writing, reading, and math portions of the COMPASS. Test scores must be less than four years old. You can see the scores that are required at http://www.ivytech.edu/compass/placement-scores.html; you must submit your test scores to the Office of Admissions

All new, transfer, and re-admitted degree-seeking are required to attend New Student Orientation before registering for classes. Orientation is offered on various days and time, and lasts 2 to 3 hours. You will meet with your advisor and schedule your classes during New Student Orientation.

I am a current Ivy Tech Student. How do I make an appointment with my advisor?

Do I have to have an appointment to see my advisor in the Academic Advising Center?
We recommend strongly that you make an appointment with your advisor  this will give you and your advisor time to prepare for your meeting. Appointments are necessary if you want to discuss your degree progress, course schedule, degree changes, or transfer plans.

Walk-in advisors are available every day to address general questions about registration and schedule updates. Please note that you may have to wait for the walk-in advisor to be available, and that the walk-in advisor may not be your assigned advisor.

Can I be advised through e-mail?
We can answer very basic registration questions via e-mail. If your question involves your degree progress, course schedule, degree changes, or transfer plans, please make an appointment.

How do I know which classes I have to take?
You and your advisor will determine the courses that you need to take. These courses will be outlined in your Individual Academic Plan.

How do I register for classes?
We recommend strongly that you meet with your advisor before registering for classes. This is the best way to make sure that you are staying on track to graduate.

After you have planned your course schedule with an advisor, you can register online through Campus Connect. Go to the My Ivy Tech section and click on Course Search to look for classes, or click on Add or Drop Classes to register for classes or to adjust your schedule.

Can I drop or withdraw from a class?
Yes, but it is important to understand that there is difference between drop and withdraw:

DROP
A drop occurs within the first days/weeks of the term, and is accompanied by a 100% tuition refund. If you drop a course, this course will not appear on your official academic record. 

The official deadline date is determined by the number of weeks a particular course lasts. All official drop dates are e-mailed to students via their Ivy Tech e-mail account, and are posted at http://ivytech.edu/sellersburg/.

WITHDRAW
A withdraw occurs after the official drop deadline has passed. If you withdraw from a course, you will receive a W on your transcript, but this will not impact your grade point average. 

Withdrawn courses do count as attempted hours, and can potentially impact your financial aid eligibility. You should always consult with Financial Aid before withdrawing from a course.

The Academic Advising Center provides academic advising to all new, incoming, and first-time Ivy Tech Community College students.  It is a centralized resource for students, faculty and staff. All students are welcomed to contact the Academic Advising Center with questions.
