How Can an Academic Advisor Help?

Ensuring the holistic success of each student is at the heart of the mission of the advising team in the John W. Schmidt Center for Student Success. In order to meet our goal of helping each student to be successful, the advisors in the JWS Center help with much more than simply choosing classes, adjusting to university life as a first year student, or helping students choose a major. Our advisors work to ensure that each student performs well both in and out of the classroom, help students become aware of and navigate obstacles, encourage student engagement both socially and academically, track each student's successful progress towards their intended major, and promote the importance of overall well-being. 

In addition to advising all freshmen until the completion of their forty-fifth credit hour, the advisors in the JWS Center support students who are:

  • Conditionally admitted
  • Undecided about their major
  • Taking one or more developmental courses in mathematics or English
  • Seeking an associate degree
  • Earning a baccalaureate degree in interdisciplinary studies
