Boosting Retention and Graduation
The University Advising Team is a resource for students who encounter roadblocks or barriers to help them stay on track for graduation, preferably within four years. The University Advising Team staff actively listens to student issues or concerns and determines the best course of action to help find a resolution. University Advising staff explains general policies and procedures, talks through the situation and possible solutions with the student, gives student action items to work on, and directs the student back to their major academic advisor or other appropriate campus resources.
