Academic Advising & Career Services
Cochise College advisors assist our diverse student population in defining, planning, and achieving success. This collaborative effort results in students taking responsibility for achieving educational, personal/social, and career goals.
Our Team is Available to Support Your Educational Goals!
Our goal as Cochise College academic advisors is to provide the support you need to be successful in your educational and career goals.

Students who have taken less than 15 credits must meet with an advisor to register for classes.
Academic advisors are here to help you:
- Understand your degree/certificate program
- Create an educational plan
- Select classes to meet degree/transfer requirements
- Connect you to college services and support
