Are there Academic Advisors who specifically work with student athletes?
Students are welcome to visit any program advisor when setting up his or her academic plan, but the Athletic Department does work closely with a few advisors who are geared towards setting schedules for our student athletes. They will keep your records on file and help track your graduation requirements. They will also work with your academic schedule and your athletic practice/game schedule to best arrange when certain courses should be taken to ensure academic success.
