• new students need to make an appointment with an advisor for transfer information, questions and scheduling
  

• new pre-health students must attend an information meeting prior to setting a one-on-one appointment with an advisor
  

• all students must request official copies of high school and/or GED and if applicable college transcripts to be sent directly to COTC
  

• students should come prepared with any questions, concerns or preliminary scheduling plans for a walk-in or appointment with an advisor
  

• our office is a high-traffic area; if you call and do not reach someone, please leave a message, and we will return the call as soon as possible
  

• when calling for an advisor, please be aware that your advisor may be with another student and unavailable to take your call – ask the front desk your question, they may be able to help, or you can leave a message for your advisor
