Our services are offered in a variety of formats and at various times throughout the day. 

• Advising services are available in the Counseling, Advising and Retention Services office (CARS). Because CARS staff members understand adult students have varied schedules, the office provides services during the day, in the evening, on weekends, online and via the web. Various retention services allow you to connect with faculty members, your advisor, a tutor or a fellow student.
  
  
• Student Life offers you an opportunity to become involved in student clubs or attend entertaining programs. Many of our academic clubs are appealing to adult students because of the networking opportunities and the convenient times activities are offered.  We know that you are busy and have little free time to pursue campus activities, however many of the programs and events are enjoyable for the whole family. Drive-in movies, theatrical plays, the Dance Company performances, sporting events, and concerts are a few of the programs available to you and your family. Drop into the Student Life office or contact them at 410-777-2218 to learn more about joining or starting a club to meet your needs.
