Oakton Community College provides a broad range of courses and academic programs that prepare students for transfer to four-year colleges, for immediate entrance into occupations, or for continuing education. In order to fully explore all of your options and successfully meet your educational goals, we strongly encourage you to meet with an advisor each semester. Keep in mind that academic advising is a joint effort between you and your advisor.

Recommended steps for continuing or previously enrolled students prior to each semester:

  1. Review the Oakton catalog for details about our academic programs, degree or certificate requirements, and course offerings.
  2. Meet with an academic advisor to discuss your upcoming schedule and use our course planning worksheet (PDF 13K) to help you develop your schedule.
    3. Advisors and counselors can help you develop and implement planning in the following areas:
    • your personalized educational plan
    • the selection of appropriate courses
    • your progress toward your goals(s)
    • the transfer process
    • the tools for academic success
  3. Stop by the Advising and Counseling Center to pick up appropriate transfer guides and materials, as well as meet with an advisor to discuss your transfer plans.

    4. Academic advising is highly recommended each semester. Students should contact the Advising and Counseling Center to make an appointment with an advisor or counselor to discuss your educational plans.
