The Academic Advisor & You

[homunculusgrey]

I went to community College for 4 years. I went into an academic advisor every semester. I finally ask "how close am I to graduating?" And they tell me "if you finish this algebra class you will get 2 degrees." Like, what?! 2?! I was only going for 1! What is this other degree? Humanities. It was humanities. I didn't even know humanities was a degree, but now I guess I'm human as fuck now.

Whenever aisha uploads I’m legally obligated to click on the video (multiple people have been dropped from great heights due to my awful rock climbing belaying)

She really looks like an academic advisor with that hairstyle.

as an american who suffered thru 4+ years of friday night football games and marching performances, it truly is only the insane people who enjoy it. sweating in a stiff uniform for at least 5 hours every friday night and not getting home until 1 am does BAD THINGS to you.

Academic advisors knowing the best way to get you through college is like lightining striking 54x in the same place

“Oh, you didn’t need that class. But you needed to take these next few classes for the prerequisite courses for this university, so you’re scheduled to transfer in another 2 years.”

community college academic advisors rlly just go “idk what do u wanna do” IDK I WENT TO YOU TO FIGURE IT OUT thank u for making this video omg

I transferred from a big university where the advisors were just like this to a smaller one where there were like 30 people total in my program. The difference in advisors was insane. I went into their office and they *knew my name* BEFORE I introduced myself. And then they sat down with me for an hour and 30 minutes and planned out my entire academic career.

i’m currently in school to become a counselor and it’s always so funny when i have to go see one and tell them my major- they always seem so thrown off like a magician who’s trick just got exposed

I raw dogged community college for my A.A. without ONCE speaking to an advisor. I’m now at a university and these people they call “advisors” are so bothered by the fact that I’m a woman in STEM. I can barely get a hold of the ONE advisor in my major and when I do… nothing gets done? You’re actually telling me that I pay $13, 000 a semester to have a staring contest with a stranger who is responsible for my academic future? I’m so glad that this is a universal experience bc it is so not slay

I stress over my body order, because of course, I smell strongest to myself. The biggest compliment I've ever gotten was when a coworker told me "you smell like nothing". It was like a weight was lifted off my shoulders

My advisor clutched up for me and made sure I was all good. The whole program being deleted almost happened to me but my advisor saved me on that one.

She was the goat fr.

The academic advisor point is so real. My college closed over the pandemic and got absorbed by another one. We were lucky, they promised same time to graduation. But of course different colleges use different credit systems and have different graduation requirements. So I have friends who started college doing things the new university doesn't have requirements for, so they were supposed to say "this is a fringe requirement your school had, this is a fringe requirement ours had, we'll just say theirs fills ours, " but many advisors just didn't. So I know tens of students who're having to pay for a whole extra full or half semester at least just because they didn't fulfill their promise.

Terminated program thing happened to me. Fortunately, they allowed me to substitute the obsolete classes i was supposed to take with updated ones. Thank god the VA is paying for it all.

The way I crush on this woman… my goodness. Chefs kiss. Personality, cuteness, everything!

As someone who just started college and has to take an hour long journey on a bus to get there, I understand the body odor problem on a personal level. Especially since I study Animal Heath and I have to handle stinky animals, I can now identify which passinger on the bus smells like the domesticated rat in the unit.

My first TWO YEARS of college I didn’t even have an advisor because he quit right before I started and they never bothered to replace him. I completely changed majors and now getting the bare minimum from my current advisor feels like a godsend.
