What Does My Advisor Expect From Me?

In both the freshman advising workshop and regular, 30-minute appointments, students should expect professional academic support from their advisors. Advisors expect:

Responsibility. Show up. Be on time. Be prepared.

Communication. Read your MIX email. Any email from an advisor is important.

Preparation. Think about and write down a list of majors and courses of intent and/or questions and concerns.

Commitment to your own academic success

Phone Appointments

Under special circumstances students may be granted 1-hour phone appointments with an advisor. Students that are assigned a phone appointment are expected to have access to a computer, paper, and a writing utensil during the duration of the appointment in order to fully capture the information discussed during the session.
