Who is my academic advisor? Where do I go to get advising?

Depending on your major, your advisor could be a:

  • faculty member who has been assigned to you
  • departmental staff advisor hired solely to advise students
  • peer advisor for some of the simple questions.

If you do not know who your academic advisor is, you can ask the personnel in the main office of your department. Also, you may develop relationships with other faculty and staff on campus that may help you in your decision making processes. Ultimately, you have to weigh all the information presented and make an informed decision for yourself.
