Check-in’s with the Promise Program have started!
All Promise students must complete their check-in with a Promise staff member once per semester. The check-in is different from meeting with a counselor.
Prepare for your Promise check-in:
-
- Login to Starfish and set up your account! Upload a photo, add your bio and pronouns, and get familiar with the platform.
-
- September is the BEST time to meet with a counselor!
Schedule your appointment as soon as you can to discuss Spring 2025 classes if they are not already listed on your Student Education Plan. Spring 2025 registration dates will be emailed to students in October and counseling appointments will begin filling fast.-
- If you are in a special program (EOPS, Veterans, Athletics, Umoja, etc), meet with your program counselor.
- To meet with a general counselor, schedule an appointment here.
- If you would like to meet with a Promise Counselor, contact us for more information.

How can I complete my Promise Check-in?
-
- Visit the Promise team in person anytime during our office hours! No appointment needed.
- Join our Zoom Drop-in for a virtual check-in. No appointment needed.
- Find the Promise Program table during events hosted in the quad!
- Make an in-person or virtual appointment with a Promise Coach or Mentor through Starfish
What do I do during check-in?
Students will meet with a promise coach or mentor to discuss how the semester has been going, resources to support, and ensure you are on track with Promise eligibility requirements. The check-in ususally doesn’t take more than 15 minutes!
