Student Services

Below is a list of NDSCS departments or service areas commonly used by students. On some pages, you will need to scroll down to find more information.

  • Academic Advisors – Contact an advisor for help planning your class schedule. Also see online program advisor contact information. 
  • Bookstore – Online classes do require textbooks and some classes require access codes to publisher website information. Please order these codes from NDSCS. Codes ordered from another source will not work with NDSCS Online classes which would result in students having to purchase another code through the College.
