I have not been admitted yet, but would like to meet with an advisor.

If you would like to set up an academic advising appointment to have an unofficial evaluation of the transferability of your credits prior to completing the admission process, you may do so with one of our College Advising offices or at the Partnership Office at Lakeland Community College or Lorain County Community College. You must bring unofficial copies of all previously attended institution's transcripts to the appointment for review. Your Advising Office is determined by your college of enrollment.
