Guiding Student Success

Our students are surrounded by academic support, with access to dedicated advisors, tutoring, and flexible ways to connect online. We're here to help you navigate toward academic success.

How Advising Works

Your academic advisor is housed in your department and has expertise in your areas of study. They’ll work closely to help you: • Explore your academic and career interests. • Develop a personalized academic plan for steady progress toward your degree, including course selection, credit accumulation, and graduation timelines. • Leverage university resources, understand policies and procedures, engage with the academic community, and access necessary support services. • Update your goals, progress, and action plans periodically.

Advising FAQs

Students are assigned an advisor shortly after admission. Students meet with an academic advisor at least once a semester to discuss course selections for the following term. They can also schedule additional meetings as questions arise throughout the year. We encourage you to meet with your advisor as often as you like.

To get the most out of your meeting with your advisor, it’s important to come prepared. Here are some tips:

  • Review your academic degree requirements ahead of time.

  • Make a list of courses you are interested in taking.

  • Review your record in Albert to review any holds.

  • Jot down any questions you have for your advisor to make sure they are answered.
