Center for Student Success

• First-Year Students: If you are a new first-year student, please be sure to follow the instructions on our Virtual Orientation website for first-year students. For your convenience, we will create your course schedule for you based on the recommended four year plan for your major. If you need to see a Student Success advisor after your virtual orientation, you can email success@ramapo.edu.

• Transfer Students: Please email success@ramapo.edu to set up an appointment to meet with a Student Success Advisor as soon as possible so that we can help to you register for classes. Be sure to complete our Virtual Orientation program for transfer students!

• Advisement Appointments: All advisement appointments can be set up online using Connect. You can find your advisor’s contact info there as well. You may continue to schedule meetings with your advisor, but know that all meetings will take place via Google Meet or phone conference.

• Walk-In Meetings:At the present time, advisors are not available for walk-in appointments, but we launched a new chat feature that will be available during business hours on the Student Success website.

Advisement Holds for First-Year Students: If you are a first-year student who is still carrying an advisement hold even after meeting with your advisor, email your Student Success advisor for assistance.

• Advisement Holds for New Transfer and Sixth Semester (Junior) Students: Your designated faculty advisor can lift your hold. If you have seen your faculty advisor, but the advisement hold is still on your account, please contact your School Secretary for assistance (see above for contact info).
• Immunization Holds:  Students who have submitted partial documentation of the College’s required immunization requirements may be able to have their immunization hold temporarily lifted so they can register for classes. They will still be held to compliance with the remaining required immunization documentation after registration.Students who have not submitted any documentation of their immunization records will still have registration holds and will not be able to register for classes. For questions about the immunization hold, please email immunize@ramapo.edu.
