Graduate students below the doctoral level are required to meet with a College of Education academic advisor for their first semester to register for entry level courses. Most new graduate students will also be assigned a faculty advisor in their academic department upon admission to the graduate program.
Students then meet with their professional advisor to select courses for the remainder of their program. Faculty advisors have the expertise to provide graduate students with advice on their program of study, working with each student’s individual interests and aspirations. Academic advisors are also available for assistance with university and Graduate School procedures.
