About the Advising Resource Center

Student Admin Building
We promote undergraduate student success by providing holistic support and engaging educational advising sessions that empower and validate students' academic journeys. In collaboration with the campus community, academic advisors encourage students to be active partners in exploring and developing plans to achieve their education, career, and life goals.

 

Our Mission

Students will be provided with consistent, robust, and holistic advising supported by a team of advisors housed within College Centers and Signature Programs. Advising will be aligned with students’ major and career goals, supportive of student identities, and focused on improving retention and graduation rates through strong relationships and inclusive communities.

 

Our Vision

The model allows for a strengths-based approach for faculty and professional advisors to use their role-specific skills in a coordinated effort to serve students better. The expanded college-based advising model allows for faculty and professional advisors to maintain manageable caseloads, granting more time to work meaningfully with students. Faculty and professional advisors will support each other to advise students toward timely graduation.

 

Our Core Values

  • Consistent point of contact within the college or equity program.
  • Culturally aware advising practices that address students' needs.
  • Students, faculty, and professional advisors are included.
  • Cooperation and support to improve the student advising experience.
