Academic advising is available throughout the student's enrollment at the College to assist students with the identification and resolution of academic problems. Individual advisement sessions are scheduled by appointment and may be outside of regular class time. In addition, faculty members are available throughout the term to meet with students as needed.
Students requesting guidance, encouragement, or assistance are encouraged to discuss any situation with an instructor or a member of the College management team as needed. While the College does not provide counseling services, it maintains a community resource list and a Student Assistance Program for personal, family, legal, and financial counseling-related needs. The Student Assistance Program is available to all DCN students at no cost. This 24/7 program is a professional, confidential service that provides students immediate access to a comprehensive network of experts and information that can help them handle life's challenges. Students who need assistance in these areas should contact the Dean of Administrative, Student, Career, and Alumni Services.
