An advisor, especially a departmental advisor can assist you by helping you to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
1<\/td>\nSelect courses that lead to your degree<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
2<\/td>\nUnderstand the reasons behind the curriculum<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
3<\/td>\nPlan your academic load<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
4<\/td>\nApprove your class schedule<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
5<\/td>\nIdentify campus resources that can aid you academically and socially<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
6<\/td>\nMonitor your progress<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
7<\/td>\nHelp you to see the career opportunities open to you.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Although there are advisors who may not be as supportive and helpful as they should be, most advisors are anxious to talk to you. They appreciate the students who come to see them. They welcome the chance to get your reactions to what is going on in the program and to obtain student perspectives on a range of subjects. Don’t feel that you are imposing on the advisor’s time. For faculty, advisement is part of their responsibility and for many advisors, it is their only responsibility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
