Academic Advising
Create Your Road Map to Success
Advisors can help you select courses to meet your goals, understand core curriculum and access on-campus resources. You also can discover how to drop or add a course as well as how to transition to a university.
Advisors can answer any question regarding your academic career at COM and beyond. We recommend you meet with an advisor for a confidential advising session each semester.
For general Advising questions or inquiries, please call: 409-933-8379 or email advising@com.edu.
