Academic Advising

Academic Advising is designed to help students reach their educational and career goals. Successful advising depends upon a partnership between the student and the advisor. You are assigned an academic advisor based on your major/program and will assist you in course selection and registration, academic and career planning, and connecting you with resources to ensure academic success.

You can use your Degree Audit, accessed from CSPConnect, to review information regarding major and minor requirements. If you have any questions, please contact your Academic Advisor, listed on the top left of your degree audit. See below for detailed information on advisors. If you need clarification on your advisor, please feel free to email [email protected].
