Every student has an assigned counselor/advisor. To determine what Counselor or Advisor is assigned to a particular major, contact the Counseling Dept. or choose one of the links below:
The Counseling Department offers students several academic advising services.
Counselors and Academic Advisors help students to:
- Learn about Lane services and programs.
- Identify college procedures.
- Obtain up-to-date written information about requirements for Lane programs and degrees.
- Plan course schedules to meet personal needs and program requirements.
- Identify Lane courses that meet degree requirements at Lane and at four-year colleges throughout the state.
- Solve scheduling difficulties or problems.
- Identify ways to do well in class and feel satisfied about school.
Students can make an appointment with a counselor or advisor by coming to the appointment desk in the Counseling and Advising Center, or by calling (541) 463-3200. Or, students may drop in without an appointment during the counselor's office hours. Counselor schedules for each term can be obtained in the Counseling and Advising Center, and are posted on the door to the counselor's office.
Counselors have an in-depth knowledge of their departments' procedures and various resources available. New students will meet with their department counselor during the new student program orientations held before the beginning of each term. These sessions are group meetings to orient students to their department and help with course planning. Students are encouraged to meet with their counselor on a regular basis throughout their stay at Lane.
Representatives from four-year schools in the state make regular visits to Lane Community College. Students who are considering transferring should take the opportunity to meet with these representatives. Schedules of these visits are available in the Counseling and Advising Center.
