We Help You Navigate Your Academic Path
Academic advisors are mentors who build relationships with their advisees, pay attention to their academic progress, recommend resources and assist advisees in identifying and fulfilling their goals while they work towards completing their degrees.
Advisement at USCB is a collaborative, continuous process of evaluation and clarification leading to student development, growth and maturity. All students are required to meet with their advisors during Advising Days to discuss their goals, academic progress and any other issues before registering for classes for the upcoming term. While the advisors' role is critical in this process, the ultimate responsibility for registration decisions rests with students.
Our Services For Students Include:
- Academic advising for course selection and registration
- Academic and degree progress updates
- Assisting students in identifying transfer and transient courses
- Connecting students with relevant academic and other support services
- Assisting students in making realistic academic plans and decisions based on their goals, interests and abilities
- Addressing concerns over grades, GPA and/or academic standing
- Interpreting institutional policies and procedures
