The office of Academic Advising offers students a wide variety of services including:

  • Freshman Advising
  • Faculty Advising
  • Open Advising
  • Registration Clearance
  • Freedom and Responsibility
  • The Advising Calendar

All Arts & Sciences Freshmen will be advised by the Office of Academic Advising. Freshmen will no longer be assigned a faculty adviser.

Upperclassmen will continue to have faculty advisers. At the end of freshmen year, Arts and Science Students will be assigned to a faculty adviser based on their preference for a major.

Each major and minor will have "Open Advisers". These advisers, both faculty and perhaps a few graduate students, will be available to meet with any student from any class, including freshmen.

All students must meet with their academic or faculty advisers in the months before pre-registering each term. After that meeting, advisers will sign a registration clearance form, giving the student the freedom and responsibility to implement that advice. Students will need signatures from instructors to add a course after the second week and permission of the Office of Academic Advising to take more than 18.5 credits.
