Advising Information

If you follow the link, you can see the Richmond Advising Rubric, which will open in a new tab. This rubric outlines which programs the primary academic advisors oversees at Ivy Tech Richmond and its Connersville site. The rubric also provides students with their faculty advisor, which may update every time a student changes their major. Below, we've provided additional contact information for the primary academic advisors.

Academic Advisors are on walk-ins until September 2, no appointment is necessary. After September 2, advisors are taking appointments. The appointments can be scheduled through MyIvy by using Ivy Advising, located within the student dashboard under "Advising." If the student has been placed on SAP Termination, for their initial appointment they should select two consecutive 30 minute blocks to allow for a one hour appointment. If no appointment times are available, please have the student email their primary Academic Advisor or contact the Director of Academic Advising.

The Academic Advising Center also welcomes students for general questions (no paperwork please) on a walk-in basis. Advisors are scheduled:

Advising Information

If you follow the link, you can see the Richmond Advising Rubric, which will open in a new tab. This rubric outlines which programs the primary academic advisors oversees at Ivy Tech Richmond and its Connersville site. The rubric also provides students with their faculty advisor, which may update every time a student changes their major. Below, we've provided additional contact information for the primary academic advisors.

Academic Advisors are on walk-ins until September 2, no appointment is necessary. After September 2, advisors are taking appointments. The appointments can be scheduled through MyIvy by using Ivy Advising, located within the student dashboard under "Advising." If the student has been placed on SAP Termination, for their initial appointment they should select two consecutive 30 minute blocks to allow for a one hour appointment. If no appointment times are available, please have the student email their primary Academic Advisor or contact the Director of Academic Advising.

The Academic Advising Center also welcomes students for general questions (no paperwork please) on a walk-in basis. Advisors are scheduled:

Terre Haute - Academic Advising Center

Amber Harnack, Director 812-298-2287 aharnack@ivytech.edu I want to enjoy a world filled with innovative and creative educators where music comes packaged with sunny days and my cats do chores while I’m at work.  Working in higher education for over 15 years I’ve had the opportunity to work for both Indiana State University and Ivy Tech Community College-Terre Haute. A first generation college student with a Bachelor’s degree in Speech Communication from Indiana State University and a Master’s degree in Public Service Administration from the University of Evansville, I am passionate about helping others find their educational and career paths. I strive to make a difference in the lives of others.  I’m a Kentucky born girl who loves college basketball, (Louisville Cardinals), and enjoy visiting family any chance I get. I’m a Tell City High School graduate with a love for the Marksmen. My husband and I, “transplants” to Terre Haute, decided this was an amazing place to live, work and put down roots. When not at work you can find me working out, enjoying FaceTime with my nieces and nephews, or cleaning up after our cats, Rocko and Miles.
