Your Advising Resource Center is specialized on the basis of specific departments and programs. Once you have reached sophomore status, you will be assigned to one of six advising centers, strategically located across campus. The Center will facilitate assignment of your new faculty advisor.

You should take responsibility to contact your new advisor, establish an academic relationship, and request their assistance as needed as you progress through degree completion. Your faculty advisor's name, phone number, and building location can be identified on the last block of your DAPR, or also on the Services for Current Students web page under the "Advising" heading, using the “Who is my Advisor?" tool.

Other services available through your Advising Center include:
- Graduation application, checklist and verification for graduation
- Transfer Course Equivalencies
- Degree Analysis Progress Report (DAPR) assistance
- Major/Minor changes, additions, deletions
- Course Request and Registration Instructions
