One-Stop Enrollment and Success Center

In support of the College’s mission, One-Stop Enrollment and Success Center is dedicated to all aspects of student and institutional success by providing quality and proactive enrollment and academic advising. The One-Stop promotes an atmosphere of student learning and success by maintaining professional values and commitments that support the greater good of the students, our colleagues, and the college. The One-Stop, through collaborative partnerships with faculty and other stakeholders and continued professional growth, is committed to assisting students with completing the application and enrollment process, and achieving their academic and career goals by providing advising, academic counseling, career guidance, and serving as a resource center for current and potential students.

Enrollment and academic advising provides students with the opportunity to meet with an advisor for the purpose of gaining assistance completing the application process, planning their educational career, learning needed skills for academic success, and learning how to access the variety of resources and services available to them on the campus. Enrollment and academic advising is a partnership between a student and an One-Stop Advisor to develop meaningful educational goals and plans that are consistent with the student’s personal values, interests and abilities. This is a collaborative approach in which the student and the advisor have clear responsibilities for ensuring the advising partnership is successful.


Career Assessment & Counseling

A person’s success in a given field depends on his or her interest in the field and on his or her potential to learn and excel in that area of work. Standardized career assessment is available to assist students in exploring career opportunities by discovering their interests, aptitudes, and abilities in different types of employment. Career assessment tools currently being utilized to assist the student and counselor in making an informed career path choice include Career Scope, GCIS, and GAFutures.

Career counseling is available upon request to both potential and current students. Counseling sessions provide individuals with the information necessary to make more realistic and informed choices about careers. Career counselors meet with students to review all program options (including wage data), discuss the students’ interests, academic history, work history, and other areas of concern. Information available to students includes:

  • Extensive information on individual programs of study
  • Employment trends and salary ranges from regional and national sources including Georgia Career Information System (GCIS)
  • In-depth program information provided through meetings with program coordinators or other instructors
  • Career assessment (interest and/or aptitude testing)

Assistance to Students on Academic Warning, Probation, and Dismissal
