Your Success Starts with BearTrax
Bear Trax is a required advising and registration session for all new mini传媒入口 students who have not attended another Maricopa Community College or have earned less than 12 college credits after high school. Any student who has attended another college/university should schedule an appointment with the appropriate advisors. Students who are new to college should attend Bear Trax as their initial advising appointment.
Bear Trax is designed to orient you to our campus resources available to help you be a successful college student; you will learn how to navigate your personal Student Center and learn more about our Fields of Interest that have degree and certificate programs relevant to your interests.
You will also meet with an academic advisor who will help you understand degree requirements, show you how to search for and select your classes and register for the upcoming semester. You will complete your Bear Trax session with a first-semester class schedule in hand, an understanding of options for paying for classes and tools to help with your successful transition to college life.
