The Office of Student Academic Services coordinates academic advising for undergraduate students, administers undergraduate policies and regulations, and provides programs for academic success.
A staff of academic advisors is available in the Office of Student Academic Services from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday to answer questions and to assist students with academic matters beyond the scope of the faculty advisor. Please refer to The University Community for a description of services offered by the office.
The Director of the Office of Student Academic Services is responsible for the monitoring of University Undergraduate academic regulations as described on the following pages. Any student with questions concerning academic regulations should address them to the staff in the Office of Student Academic Services. If a student, because of extenuating circumstances, wishes to have a regulation set aside, he/she should submit a Student Request Form to Student Academic Services. These forms may be obtained in the Office of Student Academic Services, 159 Mossman Building.
Each student is assigned a faculty advisor according to the chosen major. Students are expected to meet with their advisors during registration periods and whenever the student needs advice in selecting courses and assistance in planning an individual program of study. Some departments and schools have established advising centers or appointed coordinators to assist students with academic matters pertinent to their major. These serve to complement the faculty advising program.
