Career Advisors

Our helpful team of academic and career advisors can help students get the most out of their college experience during an individual appointment or during Drop-In Hours. Our academic advisors are primary academic advisors for all 1st and 2nd year students. Our staff is dedicated to advancing and supporting campus-wide academic and career advising. We are available to attend department meetings, visit classes, and coordinate with clubs, organizations and residence hall staff to offer assistance.
