Partners For Success
Academic advisors offer the guidance and reassurance college students often need to attain a degree.
Advisors meet regularly with chemistry majors to assist in planning class schedules that will fulfill requirements. These conferences help minimize confusion during the education process and the possibility that graduation may be delayed due to unfulfilled requirements.
The final responsibility for fulfilling university requirements still rests with the students. Before each advising session, a student should:
-
Review their general studies and degree checklists to see what courses they need for graduation
-
Check the current schedule of classes for availability
-
Create a mock schedule with the name and course number of each class and have at least two or three back-up classes
In addition to helping with class schedules, advisors are a good source of information on financial aid, scholarships, tutoring and other academic pursuits.
