Student Advising Centers

At the Alamo Colleges District-Palo Alto College, academic advising and career advising builds a culture of integrated practices and shared responsibilities. Through collaborative teaching and learning, the advising process empowers our diverse student populations to explore and navigate their academic and career pathways. Palo Alto College has three Academic Advising Centers.  The Business Opportunities Leadership Demand (BOLD) Occupations Advising Center, Service Education Empowerment Diversity (SEED) Advising Center, and the Science Technology Engineering & Math (STEM) Advising Center each provide academic advising support to new and currently enrolled students.

All students enrolled in courses at Palo Alto College are assigned a Certified Academic Advisor.  The Certified Academic Advisor provides students with a personalized pathway to success through academic and career advising. Your assigned advisor will assist you with developing a degree plan, registering for courses, completing a financial aid appeal, exploring careers, and researching transfer opportunities.

Advising Centers provide students information on courses needed for a certificate, a two-year associate degree or courses required for transfer from Palo Alto College to other colleges/universities.  The Advising Centers also host the annual New Student Convocation.  New Student Convocation is designed to welcome, motivate, and engage new students to Palo Alto College.

Early Alert Program

Early Alert Intervention program is designed to promote student success and retention. This intervention program is initiated within the first 4 -8 weeks of a semester when faculty members identify students at risk of not passing their course. As the first level intervention, faculty encourages students to meet with them to discuss and address any academic concerns. An email generated by the faculty regarding the first intervention is sent directly to the students' ACES email account. It is very important that students promptly respond to any Early Alert Intervention communication. As the second level intervention, students are contacted by their assigned Certified Advisor to assess issues that may negatively impact their academics as well as provide resources to help ensure the students’ best chance for success. Interventions resources may include tutoring, advising, study strategies, and referrals to college and community services.
