Academic Advisement

Advisement is crucial to reaching your goals. The primary role of the academic adviser is to provide information and support to help students be successful in reaching their goals. 

Advisors help students identify and weigh options, but the responsibility for decisions and working within campus policy and procedures, remains with the student.

  • developing a plan to reach your educational and life goals
  • advising you how best to select and schedule classes
