Honors Carolina Career & Professional Development Coaches

The Honors Carolina Difference includes a dedicated team of career coaches who begin working with students in their first year. Coaches are here to listen, point students in the right direction, and help students maximize the Honors Carolina experience. Coaches work with students to explore areas of interest, identify learning opportunities, in and outside of the classroom, expand their professional network, and develop and market skills that position students for success. Students can schedule a meeting with a coach through the Go Anywhere Platform.

UNC Advising

In the College of Arts & Sciences

All Honors Carolina students begin their academic journey assigned to a Thrive Advisor (a full-time employee of UNC Advising), who supports the student from matriculation through graduation, unless the student is admitted into a pre-professional school and chooses not to pursue a major or minor in the College of Arts and Sciences. Students may schedule an advising appointment through their ConnectCarolina Student Center (details here).

In Professional Schools

Once admitted to one of Carolina’s professional schools (which often happens in the Fall semester of junior year), juniors and seniors will be assigned an advisor in their professional school.  The professional school advisor will review major requirements, discuss course options, inform students of special opportunities in their program, and clear them for graduation.  After admission, students will need to see their professional school representatives for all advising needs, including dropping and adding courses, changing or adding a major and/or minor, and other administrative matters.

If a professional school student is approved for a second major or minor in the College of Arts and Sciences, the student receives academic advising for their second major or minor by UNC Advising. The professional school will clear the student for graduation.
