Academic Advising

Students are assisted by professional advisors in the following ways:
- understanding academic policies and regulations of the university;
- exploring career and educational options;
- identifying reasons and solutions for academic problems;
- monitoring and evaluating educational progress; and
- maintaining records of students' progress and transfer to major areas.
