What is the role of my Athletic Academic Advisor?
The Athletic Academic Advisors are assigned to specific teams to provide services and assistance to members of those teams. Your Athletic Academic Advisor works with you from the start of the academic school year into the summer and beyond. Athletic Academic Advisors meet regularly with students to monitor course progress, serve as support outside of the athletic department and your team and advocate for your academic and future success. Athletic Academic Advisors can also assist you with scheduling classes around practice times while still keeping you on track to graduate.
How do I get help scheduling my classes?
Students with a chosen major are directed to consult with their specific major advisor to obtain current information on courses and schedules. All other students can meet with the advisors at the LAKER Academic Center for assistance on scheduling needs.
