Undergraduate Advising
All College of Education, Health, and Human Services (CEHHS) undergraduate students are encouraged to meet with a professional academic advisor each semester.
Our Academic Advisors are here to help you define your goals and chart the most efficient path to graduation! We recommend you meet with your advisor at least one time per semester to ensure you are on the right track.
You can utilize your advising appointments for things like:
- course planning
- goal setting
- change of major or selection of major
- assistance understanding the university's academic policies and procedures
- degree and graduation audits
- addressing academic challenges and barriers
- filling out petitions
