First-Year Advising
We’re so excited you’ve joined the Emory & Henry family.
The Office of First-Year Advising is here to make sure your journey at Emory & Henry begins with a strong start. Your advisor is available to help you discuss academic and career goals, build your course schedules, and help you navigate life as a new college student. Your advisor will build a relationship with you and will serve as a primary resource for you during your first year. Welcome, and let’s get started!
Who is my first-year advisor?
That’s a good question! Your first-year advisor is determined by the section of CORE 100 in which you’re enrolled. Your advisor will also work closely with your professor in that course to ensure a seamless transition to college life and academic success.
Check below to see which advisor is associated with your CORE 100 section, and then find our contact information on the left side of this page. Get in touch! We’d love to hear from you!
