As an Academic Pathway Advisor, I’m here to help you with course planning, Associate’s degree requirements, transferring for a Bachelor’s degree, and connecting you to PCC resources to ensure your success.
If you’re not sure which major you want to pursue, I would encourage you to connect with PCC’s Career Services to do some exploration to ensure we can do the most accurate planning for your time here.

Cherise bio: I have worked with PCC for 21 years, and I enjoy my work supporting and working alongside PCC’s incredible students. I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Linguistics and went on to earn a Master’s in Language Teaching. While working as a full-time advisor, I continue to teach part-time as a faculty member at PCC in the English for Speakers of Other Language department. I am involved in the arts and maintain a small ceramic studio space in St Johns. I am a fluent Portuguese and Spanish speaker, and I am happy to serve you in those languages, if you prefer.
