Advising Information for Current Students

Your role as advisee:

In order for the advising relationship to be successful, you must do your part and assume responsibility for your decisions. Your time spent preparing before the advising appointment can help your adviser be more effective in helping you focus on the important issues and answering your questions. In particular you can help by doing the following:

• Keep the advising appointments you have scheduled.
• Be prepared for your appointments. You may need to do some homework. Your adviser cannot do
  everything for you. A true adviser is someone who gives useful advice to you—which you, in turn,
  use to make final decisions for yourself.
• Be honest and open. If you are unhappy about something in your academic advising experience, or if you are having a personal problem that is interfering with your studies, please do not be afraid
  to share this with your adviser.
  

By remaining honest and open with each other, and by working as a team, you and your adviser should have a close relationship that will help you succeed.

The Office of Advising & Retention offers extensive support to current students in-person and via the Advising BlackBoard site.
