UAA Academic Advising
UAA academic advising is our way to help you feel welcome, connected, & prepared. We want to minimize the stress of being a new student at a big campus so you can focus on your goals.
UAA Academic Advising
We want you to succeed as a Seawolf! UAA academic advisors won't just work with you to register for classes, but they will also help you find answers to your UAA questions, connect you to resources that will support you academically, emotionally, physically, and socially, and be a listening ear on those stressful days.
How it Works
-
How do I know who my advisor is?
UAA’s First Year Experience office will contact you after you are admitted to UAA about your next steps and how to contact an academic advisor. If you have not received this email or do not know who your advisor is, find the advising team associated with your program of interest.
