Academic advisement is available to students beginning with questions they may have even before they’ve been admitted, as well as on through their study up until their graduation. Students begin their advisement formally when they come for new student orientation just prior to commencing their studies at the beginning of their first semester. At this important orientation and advisement session, all students are introduced to the School of Leadership faculty and the Academic Advisor and are informed of the procedure they may follow for academic advising at any point in their programs of study.
