Advising Versus Counseling
As an SRJC student, you have access to many Student Services and qualified staff who are eager to assist you! The Counseling Department can help students with questions about SRJC's academic programs and requirements. The International Student Program can answer questions about admissions and visas, and support international students with all other aspects of adjusting to life at SRJC. For some questions, you may be referred to another department for assistance; i.e. the International Student Advisor cannot assist you with academic planning, and your Counselor cannot answer questions about your nonimmigrant visa status. All of our staff are friendly and always happy to help connect you to the right place!
