Everyone needs a little advice from time to time and Ithaca College students have access to 3 great resources for academic and career guidance!
IC Mentoring Network
Over 750 alumni are now available to offer advice through the new IC Mentoring Network on LinkedIn, and the number is growing. It’s a virtual community where students are posting questions and alumni are sharing information and tips about their careers and professional experiences.
You can post questions and comments on the main group, or chat specifically about career areas such as education, finance, law, marketing, PT and OT, theatre and more. It’s easy to join. Just go to LinkedIn and type “IC Mentoring Network” group in the search field, or visit http://www.Ithaca.edu/alumni/mentor
The Academic Advising Center
Wondering if you’re on the right academic path? Thinking about adding and/or changing a major or minor? Confused about how your existing credits would fulfill requirements if you decided to make a change? No worries! The Academic Advising Center (AAC) has the information and tools to help you make thoughtful decisions in regards to your current and future academic goals. The AAC’s professional academic advisors partner with faculty and staff across campus to gather the critical information you need, and then work to provide it to you in one convenient location.
