Advising

From your first day at ACPHS, you’ll be paired with an academic advisor to guide and support you in reaching your goals.

Academic Advising

You’ll be assigned an academic advisor at the start of your first year through the Center for Student Success (CSS). Your advisor is here to help you adjust to college life, tackle the challenges of a rigorous academic program and support you in everything from choosing classes to navigating campus resources.

Your Academic Advisor: An Essential Part of Your Success Team

From your first semester to graduation, your academic advisor is here to help you stay on track and plan for what’s next. Whether you're still exploring or have a clear vision for your future, your advisor will help you define your goals and create a plan to reach them.

  • Choose the Right Courses

    Your advisor helps you select classes that meet your major, minor and program requirements. You’ll get the support you need to ensure you’re meeting all the requirements for graduation.

  • Explore Career Paths

    Discover how your major can connect to different career opportunities, and get help finding internships and job options.

  • Plan for Grad School

    Thinking about graduate or professional school? Your advisor can walk you through the process, from requirements to applications.

Your Academic Advisor: Support That’s Personal

Your academic advisor can connect you with the information and support services you need.

  • Get the Info You Need

    Have questions about policies, financial aid, or career services? Your advisor is a go-to source for reliable information.

  • Overcome Academic Hurdles

    Struggling with time management, study skills, or a tough class? Your advisor can connect you with academic support services.

  • Find the Right Resources

    Your advisor is there when you just need someone to talk things through. And if you need extra support, they can connect you with health and counseling services to help you feel your best.
