Academic Advising

Highline College instructors are a wonderful resource for students at any stage of the academic process. Many instructors have career experience, are knowledgeable about campus resources, and can assist students in reaching their educational goals through degree planning. If you have an advising question, feel free to approach your instructor. If your instructor cannot answer your question, she/he will help you find someone who can.
