51社区 Academic Advising Mission Statement

51社区 recognizes academic advising to be a central element of the educational experience of its undergraduate students. Advising is a collaborative relationship for which advisors and students share responsibility and through which students create sound educational plans consistent with their academic, career, and personal goals. Advisors are responsible for being accessible and responsive to students, and for providing accurate, timely information. Students are responsible for being prepared for advising sessions, and for understanding university and major requirements.

The University provides many resources to its advisors to assist them in providing accurate and timely information. Your college student services office is a great place to direct questions.
