Ways to get involved and communicate the needs of Advising Network​

University Academic Advising provides central coordination for the Advising Network through the Provost Office to enhance the campus-wide student experience. This framework benefits from university-wide institutional structures collaborating with departmental and disciplinary approaches to advance academic advising on campus. 

University-wide coordination provides a foundation for enhancing equitable student advising experiences, determining strategic outreach, and utilizing data to increase the positive impact of advising services. University-wide advising training, professional development, advisee caseload management technology, and communication supports ASCs and advisors. 

College and departments implement advising services integrating university strategies and goals with tailored approaches specific to department structures.  Colleges/departments supervise ASCs/advisors and provide training specific to their area. The Advising Network is a university-wide and connected by departments and colleges.

  Note: The following committees are in the process of being created or updated and are subject to change through Summer Semester 2025.
