The goal of academic advising is to assist students in developing educational plans consistent with career / life goals and to provide students with the information and skills needed to pursue those goals. It not only involves telling students what they need to know, but also aims at enabling them to find things out for themselves. It is important to seek advice from an academic counselor often, rather than meeting only when problems arise. All students have the right to high quality academic advising and the University has an obligation to ensure that academic advising is available to all students. Academic advising is not mandatory. Students are encouraged to utilize advising and are responsible for seeking advising.

Chugiak-Eagle River Campus offers convenient academic advising through Prof. Cheryl Smith who has been advising with the University for over 20 years.  Take advantage of her time and set up an education plan for yourself or come in to discuss the best options for your future.
