What is an Advising Hold?
The Advising Hold prevents students from registering for next quarter classes until
a student connects with an Academic Advisor to confirm their class schedule and check
in on their educational progress. The Advisor will then remove the Advising Hold and
students can proceed to register for classes once their registration date/time has
come (for your specific registration time please access the ctcLink student homepage > manage classes > enrollment date).Why do I have an Advising Hold?
All new credential seeking students are required to connect with their Academic Advisor
or any available Advisor in their degree pathway each quarter until you have completed
30 college credits and have created an educational plan.How do I get the Advising Hold lifted?
You can get the Advising Hold lifted several ways. Schedule an advising appointment
with your advisor to discuss your class schedule and confirm your educational plan.
Email your advisor to check in and confirm your classes, update your plans and let
them know how you are doing. Come to Drop In Advising and connect with any available
advisor. Your Advising Hold can be lifted by any available advisor. Give the Advising
Center a call at 253-566-6091 or email us at advising@tacomacc.eduSpring Quarter Academic Advising Hours
