One of the major additions to the new Ann Kampeter Health Sciences Hall is the Student Success and Advisement Center.

Prior to this addition, the MCHHS advisors were located in different buildings throughout campus.

Now, all the advisors are located on the first floor of Kampeter Health Sciences Hall.

“I think having one centralized office where students can come and meet with advisors is pivotal,” said Hillary Mayes, director of the MCHHS advising center.

“It allows us to come together as a team and provide students with the most help possible.”

Connecting students and mentors

MCHHS uses a unique advisement model that connects students with both staff and faculty advisors.

That means our students have a whole team of experts helping them navigate their academic journeys.

Typically students are transitioned to their faculty mentors when they are formally admitted to their undergraduate programs of study or have met other departmental requirements.

“College is hard, and students need someone in their corner to help them navigate their time here at MSU,” Mayes said.

“Our hope is to provide them with someone who can help make their college journey easier.”

Services offered

The office provides academic support and advisement services to all undergraduate and graduate students.

These services may include:

• • Helping students learn about different degree programs.
  • Registering for classes.
  • Educating students on campus resources.
  • Answering questions students may have.
