Working with an advisor is possibly the most important relationship a student can have at college. It is a student-centered process of clarification and evaluation. This process is to assist students in their development of a meaningful educational plan compatible with their life goals and their personal values.
Academic advising is an intentional process that assist student in making informed choices, clarifying their goals and developing educational plans. It is ongoing, multi-faceted, and the responsibility of the student and the advisor. The relationship between the student and the advisor is vital.
