Academic Advising

All students have an academic advisor who is their academic content expert. An academic advisor monitors your academic plan of study and works collaboratively with you to develop their class schedule to meet the degree requirements for their given academic major.

Your academic advisor will play a crucial role in helping you adjust to a new environment, clarify expectations, simplify the university experience and stay on track until graduation.

Your advisor is your partner in exploring and defining your academic, career and life goals. Your advisor will help you choose classes that interest you while still meeting the degree requirements for your major.

Plan now to meet with your advisor, discuss your goals and register for courses early. It’s the surest way to get the classes you want. Once you’re underway, always consult with your academic advisor before changing your schedule or considering another course of study. Dropping or withdrawing from a course without the help of an advisor may cause problems you haven’t anticipated.
