Student Success Advising

All degree-seeking students are assigned to a Student Success Advisor for their academic career based on their chosen major when they are admitted to Oklahoma City Community College.

All students are encouraged to make use of the combined resources in the Office of Student Success Advising and meet with their assigned Student Success Advisor.

Responsibility for advising students is shared by twenty-seven (27) full-time Student Success Advisors. Student Success Advisors serve new degree-seeking students, students who have not yet decided on a major, students seeking to make application to one of the health professions programs offered at OCCC and returning students working toward a degree in the first few semesters.

Student Success Advisors assist and academically coach students in the process of deciding on a major, career exploration and guidance, degree and transfer process advisement, academic planning, enrollment in appropriate coursework, preparing for application-based programs, and creating an academic plan.

Student Success Advisors provide major-specific information, field-related contacts, and coordination of major course sequencing. Student Success Advisors academically coach students who are prepared for college-level coursework, have decided on a major, and are pursuing a degree or certificate from Oklahoma City Community College, and/or are considering transferring to a four-year institution.

Certain programs have limited enrollment and a selective admissions process (e.g. Nursing). These students are assigned to a Student Success Advisor specializing in Health Professions.

Student Success Advising is located on the first floor of the Main Building, but also has Student Success Advisors located on the second floor of the Main Building, and within each academic division.  The Student Success Advising website has many resources for students including registration drop/add dates, career exploration information, and information on scheduling appointments, and convenient self-service information.
