Academic Advising is Key
The foundation of the first-year program is academic advising. Your advisor will be your academic mentor through your first-year of college
and have a keen understanding of what makes a successful college student.
Through your
relationship with your academic advisor, you will be able to explore career
options for your future and help you find where your path in life.
 Peer
Advisors Link You to Campus
Another mentor to help you along your way will be your peer
advisor. Peer advisors are upper-class students who lead AU4U
in the summer and help you as a new student once you arrive on campus.
Peer advisors consider themselves “instant friends” who can
show you what life is like as a first-year student.
