Update on Services for Academic Advisement (COVID-19)

Following the guidelines for social distancing to curb the spread of COVID-19 (Coronavirus), the Center for Student Success has modified its delivery of services to continue to help students. Because of the recent surge in COVID-19 cases, please note that the Center for Student Success advisors will be exclusively available for virtual meetings until January 4, 2021.

For first-year students, appointments with Student Success Advisors can be set up online using Connect. Most meetings will take place via Google Meet. Student Success Advisors are available for socially distant in-person appointments as needed. We also have a chat feature on our website that will be available during business hours. If you need to meet with your faculty advisor, please email them (contact info found in your Connect Success Network) for info on how to meet with them for virtual advisement.

The Center for Student’s Success’ Advisement Team is still committed to helping you develop your academic potential. Let’s work together to #flattenthecurve. Should you have any questions, feel free to email success@ramapo.edu.
