Academic Advisement

An academic advisor is assigned to each student dependent on their major. The advisor collaborates with the student in curriculum guidance for major/minor and general education, monitors academic progress towards goals and graduation, interprets and explains institutional policies and processes, connects students to campus resources and removes the student’s advisor restriction so that the student can register for courses.

You will meet with your academic advisor during one of the scheduled advisement and registration days prior to the start of your first semester. Once you meet with your advisor, your advisor will remove your advisor restriction and you will then be able to register for courses via our online system.

Although you can meet with your advisor as often as you would like, you must meet with your advisor at least once each semester during Advisement Period. Advisement Period (scheduled during October in the fall, and February/March in the spring), gives you the opportunity to meet with your academic advisor in order to discuss your next semester’s courses.
