Advising

Academic Advisors are Available to Help You!
Trinidad State professional advisors assist you beyond planning a class schedule; they can confirm your academic requirements and monitor academic progress towards graduation. Advisors know the campus and the many resources available for your success.

Advising Hold:
All first-semester students have an Advising Hold placed on their account. This hold is lifted once a student contacts an advisor. The Advising Hold ensures that the first semester student talks to an Academic Advisor and completes the advising process before registering for classes.

Contact an Advisor on your campus to get started. Below you will find contact information for advisors on both campuses.

Advising on both campuses is by appointment only.
