OSS: Advising

Advising efforts will consist of proactive, interactive, and holistic approaches to addressing academic and personal concerns of students. The emphasis in working with students will be on providing supportive guidance to assist their decision-making processes.

An advisor advises students about their academic decisions. It is important for students to meet regularly with their advisors to ensure that they are fulfilling their requirements and developing strategies and practices for academic success. An advisor is a resource for college and university support in academic growth and development. An advisor will share considered options for extracurricular choices, volunteer service experiences, or student employment issues.

To make an appointment with your academic advisor, use the online appointment system.
