Academic Advising
Overview
Academic advising is more than selecting courses for an upcoming semester or making a plan to graduate. Students should initiate and maintain contact with advisors to discuss situations and issues affecting academic performance, including:
- Exploration of educational and life goals
- Academic and occupational programs
- Selection and sequencing of courses
- University transfer options
- Information on campus resources and services
- Work and family commitments
Advisors will listen and respond to personal interests and concerns, suggest useful college resources, know college and departmental policies and procedures, make appropriate referrals for student support services and provide guidance and assistance with academic, career and life goals.
