Academic Advising for Students

Academic Advising ensures you are choosing the right classes based on your program’s curriculum. Your advisor will help you plan your semester course schedule and help you decide which classes you’ll need to register for. Advisement sets you up for success and timely graduation.

Advising Q & A

Who do I need to meet with to register for my first semester of classes?

Each student is assigned both a Navigator and a faculty advisor. Your Navigator will primarily assist career counseling, first-year advising and will help you plan your courses for your entire program. Your Navigator can also provide general FAFSA and financial aid assistance as well as information about scholarships and other tuition assistance programs. Your faculty advisor will assist with more program specific questions as well as graduation application assistance.
