As of Summer 2022, OTC has transitioned to a new student success model. A part of this model is each student being assigned to a full time college navigator (formerly known as advisors).

How are college navigator's selected?
You will be assigned a navigator who best suits your unique path here at OTC; we use factors like your academic program, admit status, and preferred campus location.
When should I contact my college navigator?
Your navigator can help you plan your semester, access resources, and ensure you are on the right track for graduation! Students should contact their navigator at least once a semester.
Can I change who my college navigator is?
If a student would like to change their program and/or their College Navigator, they should talk with their current College Navigator to get the process started.
If the student is uncomfortable talking with their current College Navigator for any reason, they can email the Director of Student Success for their division or location, and the Director will help them with the process.
