Academic Advising
As part of your enrollment at the ³Ô¹ÏÌìÌÃ, new and transfer students will participate in applicable placement testing and academic advising with their college advising centers.
Academic Advising
As part of your enrollment, you will connect with an academic advisor within your respective college, the College of Arts and Sciences, the Kania School of Management, or the Panuska College of Professional Studies virtually.
