Holistic Advising

 EOP Academic Counseling Services 

EOP students have access to Academic Counselors who work collaboratively to facilitate student academic, social and personal success at UCSC.

Partnerships are formed when both the student and counselor work together to identify barriers, and develop a plan for student success. EOP Counselors will listen to your story, and build upon your strengths and goals.

• Academic Advising helps to identify academic interests, educates on the effective use of advising tools (e.g. General Catalog), and assists with the development of academic plans. EOP Counselors will also work closely with College, Department, and Financial Aid Advisers in advising EOP students.
