Working with an advisor

[hsing]

What level of counsel/advice is it possible to receive from an advisor without enrolling?

If I am uncertain as to which of the Big 3 I should enroll with, do you recommend submitting an application to both? How will that be helpful?

At what point will they evaluate your credits?

At what point and to what degree will they help you design a degree path?

How receptive are they to helping you design a path that is 90% testing and not just comprehensively taking their own classes?

How much of the process is just you on your own trying to figure out what you need and then asking them if it will count?

Thanks!
