Advising

Academic advising is invaluable to the successful completion of your education goals.

1) Meet with your advisor once per term.

2) Keep your PIN and GAP codes in a safe place.

3) Take responsibility for learning your degree requirements.

You may contact the college head advisor for more information about the advising resources and requirements of your program. Contact information for individual departments is available online under the subject area contacts heading.
