Do you have questions like: What does it mean to not meet TSI requirements? What is the difference between ALEKS and TSI? Who is my academic advisor? How do I get in touch with my advisor?
Maybe you do not know what questions to ask, but know you need assistance or want to talk to someone about your next steps.
You are not alone. Please reach out to us! We can help answer your questions.
