Welcome to Academic Advising at Alamance Community College!

Advising is a critical part of the student experience at ACC, and our goal is simple: to ensure every student feels supported, informed, and confident as they navigate their educational journey. Whether you are just getting started, returning to college, or preparing to graduate, our advising team is here to partner with you every step of the way. Through proactive outreach, personalized guidance, and wraparound support, we empower students to make informed decisions, understand their programs clearly, and achieve their academic, career, and personal goals.

We believe advising is most effective when it is relational, accessible, and student-centered. Our team works closely with faculty and campus partners to ensure students receive the care, connection, and direction they need to succeed.

We look forward to supporting you and helping you make the most of your experience at Alamance Community College.
