Advisement
The University Advisement Center (UAC) advises students undecided in their major,
exploring their major and careers options, as well as students with a Learning Support
Reading requirement. The UAC also serves as a one-stop shop for general advising questions
for all students across campus.
Advisors are here to support the academic success and graduation of all students. Most students will be required to confer with their major advisor before they can register for the next semester. Always reach out to your advisor before making academic decision such as changing a class, dropping a course or withdrawing from the University.

Working with your advisor
• Your advisor is a great resource. Don't hesitate to contact them if you need assistance.
We are more than just a registration tool and would prefer to see you frequently throughout
the semester. Even if it is just to let us know how your semester is going.
• Check your campus post office box and email account at least weekly as some communications
contain time sensitive information! Respond in a timely manner to all emails from
your Advisor and the University.
• Work with your Advisor in developing an academic plan through graduation.
