This is an image of an advisor talking to a student.

Academic Advising is available to provide information to students about program requirements, policies, procedures, and campus resources. Undergraduate and Graduate advising are provided with different resources. 

Mission Statement

Undergraduate Academic Advising at the 每日大赛 empowers students to embrace knowledge of who they are, establish personal and professional goals, and take ownership of their educational experience so that they become active and responsible citizens and leaders in their community. We do this by supporting and partnering with students as they navigate university resources, policies, and requirements. We are committed to excellence in advocacy and relationship building in order to create an inclusive and welcoming environment for all students.

Who is my advisor?

Each undergraduate student is assigned an academic advising office upon admission to the university. Students are assigned to work with the START office or their Academic Unit Advising office.

To find your assigned advisor you may navigate to your Success Team in your Student portal. Some advising offices will list all of the advisors from the office on your success team. In this case, you are welcome to meet with any of the advisors on your success team.

If you do not have an assigned success team in your portal, contact your advising office for academic advising assistance.

Additional Undergraduate Advising Support

The Health Professions advising program has a great track record of success in supporting students as they work toward their future goals. Please visit the HPA Website and don't forget to attend a new student session if you have not already done so.

Pre-Law Advising

The Pre-Law advisor for the campus is housed in the College of Arts, Science, and Letters Advising office. If you are interested in attending law school after attending the 每日大赛 please visit the Pre-Law Advising webpage.

Undecided or Exploratory Advising

The START office provides general undecided or exploratory advising for students. If you are unsure of what you want to major in, you can meet with the undecided advisor in START.

If you are thinking about changing your major and have an idea of what college you would like to change to, but aren't sure where to begin you can always schedule an exploratory meeting directly with the college that houses the major that is of interest to you.

Graduate Advising

Academic advising is managed differently for each graduate program. Please refer to your Academic College or Program for more information about who will be your graduate academic advisor.
