Advisor Contacts

Connect With College Clusters

Your academic college has been assigned an Associate Director within the Academic Advising Center to serve as your primary advising contact. As the college administration’s key contact, our Associate Directors serve as our most seasoned and knowledgeable professionals who bring a strong understanding of how academic programs, institutional policies and campus resources intersect and impact a student’s pathway to graduation. Furthermore, our Associate Directors will serve as lead contacts for their college cluster, develop/conduct advisor trainings, connect faculty to advising initiatives, among other duties as assigned. 

 Together, we will create a culture of completion for our students and a build a network of support designed to graduate our students in a timely fashion.
