The
College of Human Services, Education and Public Policy is committed
to providing each undergraduate student with effective academic
advisement and your role as an academic advisor in this collaborative
effort is one that you should find both positive and rewarding!
View
yourself as a co-navigator, assisting students through their academic
experience here at UD. Through your contact, you have the ability
to inspire confidence, identify resources, foster growth and development
and assist with problem solving. Your advisees should view you
not just as the individual they seek during registration periods
but also as an active partner in their academic career. This partnership
is most successful when both you and your advisees commit to certain
established responsibilities.
In the beginning of each academic semester, your department will
provide you with a complete list of advisees including new freshman
and transfer students. You will also receive from the CHEP Office
of Student Support Services, a file for each new student. This
file is for your use, along with UDNotes,
to document your continued communication with each student. These
files should be returned to the CHEP OSSS for archiving when advisees
graduate, change majors, or end matriculation at UD.
