Welcome to the Frequently Asked Questions
section of the Counseling webpage.
The information provided here is intended as a quick reference source for students who need answers to questions ranging from how to get in to how to get out -- and everything in between. You may want to browse through the whole section, or you may want to click on a topic from the menu that’s of particular interest or importance to you at this time and get right to it. Whatever method you choose, we hope you’ll find this information helpful as you head toward your educational and career goals. |
One cautionary note: This section is NOT intended to replace seeing a counselor! It is strongly encouraged that you establish a regular advisement routine with a counselor at MPC whom you trust and with whom you are comfortable. If you are “assigned” to a counselor the first time you seek advisement, and it’s not a good match, don’t be afraid to ask to see a different counselor the next time. It’s your right, and it’s good practice for becoming an aware, assertive consumer. Establishing a working relationship with a counselor will help you more often than you can probably even imagine at this time, but as you go through this student guide, you’ll notice a number of situations where a counselor’s assistance is not only advisable, but required.
You’ll also notice that there are quite a few counselors to choose from at MPC, especially if you’re eligible to participate in one or more of the student support programs that will be described later in this guide. And all of us want you to succeed!
