Academic advising is a key component of a student-centered research university and a shared responsibility among the student, advisor, faculty, and university community. Academic advising fosters meaningful partnerships that promote personal growth, academic excellence, critical thinking, social responsibility, creativity, cultural appreciation, and career development. Academic advising facilitates self-directed lifelong learning.

Advisor Responsibilities:

Academic advisors have the responsibility to uphold the integrity and value of your degree by maintaining the standards and policies of the university. Your academic advisors will:

  • Assist you in making academic decisions consistent with your interests, abilities and goals.
  • Communicate university, college, major and minor requirements, policies, and processes.
  • Listen carefully and respect questions, concerns, and problems.
  • Assist with course scheduling, transfer and study abroad credit evaluations, and the graduation auditing process.

  • Find ways to continuously improve the advising process.
  • Present alternatives if roadblocks are encountered.
  • Maintain student record confidentiality according to 澳门六合彩官网直播 and the Federal Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) guidelines.
