E-Counseling
We welcome your questions. You may wish to review our FAQ page first to see if your question already has an answer. Email questions should be short and pertain to academic advising issues only. Appropriate questions include deadline dates, general requirements to transfer, and requirements for degrees or certificates.
This format should not be used to ask a counselor to identify which classes a student should take for a term.*
The address for email counseling is eadvisor@dvc.edu

*Occasionally, we may respond to your question with the following statement, "Please make a counseling appointment". This is because the question is most likely complex and may require detailed background information, research, and/or counselor assistance. Transcript evaluation, career and personal counseling are not available online. Please make a counseling appointment for assistance with these issues.
