Where does a student go to receive academic advising?
Upon entering the university, each student is assigned a faculty member who will be their academic advisor. Students who have declared majors will be assigned an advisor in their field of study. Advising is required for each student each semester. Advisors are provided to assist students in planning their academic programs and registering for classes. However, the student is solely responsible for seeing that he/she has met the course requirements for a program of study, as outlined in the university catalog. Students should meet with their advisors throughout the semester, but are required to meet with them during registration times. Scheduling an appointment is the best way to see an advisor.
