We at University College Advising believe that it is important for you to know that academic advising is more than simply getting registered for classes. It is a shared relationship between you and your advisor and an essential part of your university experience. You must actively participate in order for advising to work effectively. If you have questions or need help with anything, the UC advisors are available to assist you. Anytime you have a question or concern, or if you just want feedback or ideas about your academic or career plans, schedule an appointment to meet with an advisor.

     The mission of University College is to assist new, transfer and transitioning students, through academic advising, to develop and implement individual plans for achieving educational and life goals.

Academic advisors are on hand to:

  • Help you determine preparatory course requirements for admission to your major

  • Assist undeclared students explore academic options and identify a major

  • Guide you through your University Graduation Requirements

  • Assist students in understanding the philosophy, expectations, and goals of the General Education Requirements

  • Explain how to generate and read a Degree Audit Report (DARS)

  • Help students examine ways to integrate General Education and Bachelor's Degree requirements with major and career plans.

  • Interpret test scores for credit or placement (e.g. AP, ACT, CLEP, Writing Placement Essay, etc.), and assist with appropriate course selection.

  • Explain University policies and procedures (e.g. add, drop and withdrawal deadlines, academic renewal, course repeats, credit/no credit, etc.)

  • Help students make connections to other departments and agencies on campus.
