Nursing Interest Advising

Nursing and Health Science Interest students are required to meet their advisor each semester prior to being accepted in to their program of choice.  Students will need to schedule an appointment with an advisor; however, during peak registration, advisors accommodate walk-ins.  Advisors are able to help students check-in with course planning, provide PINS for registration, program application questions, student aid appeals, appeal to repeat courses and more.

If you have questions for your Health & Nursing Advisor, please e-mail us with your Name, Student ID Number and Questions at: Indy-Healthadvising@ivytech.edu

For more information about Academic Advising, such as hours of operation and locations, please visit www.ivytech.edu/advising. If you are a new student to the college and you are interested in obtaining information on enrolling, please visit www.ivytech.edu/admissions.
