Academic Support

The Urshan Student Success Center offers many academic support services and resources to assist you in achieving your academic goals. 

  • Academic Advising

Academic advising is a dynamic relationship between advisor and student to support the student’s educational success. Advisors provide guidance on course selection, academic policies and regulations.

When requesting to meet with an advisor, specify what topics you wish to discuss to ensure that you are directed to the appropriate individual. (Set up appointments on this page)
