Your Success Team is ready to help!

Purple background with white graduation cap, Watermark student app logoNavigating your way through college can be challenging. That’s why we’ve created a Central Piedmont success team just for YOU and we’re using the latest technology to stay connected with you every step of the way.

You now have your own academic advisor (if you’ve selected an academic program of interest). The Watermark Student app can help connect you to your advisor, who can provide intensive advising support and success coaching. Advisors help you explore your academic interests then develop plans of study that fit your career and educational goals. 

When you download the Watermark Student app – it’s easy to make an appointment or message your advisor without having to search for contact information.

If you need to access Watermark through a browser, you can click on the Watermark icon on the current students web page.
