Academic Advisors

Each student will be assigned an academic advisor in the School Psychology Program. The advisor's responsibilities include:

  • Assisting with planning a program of study to fit student needs and satisfy departmental/Graduate School requirements.
  • Providing ongoing feedback on academic and professional performance.
  • Assisting in determining if courses taken in other study programs can apply to the program.
  • Providing guidance regarding course substitutions.
  • Answering questions related to the school psychology program.

Each advisee is encouraged to meet with their advisor to seek counsel and feedback regarding school issues during their program of study.

In addition, the advisor will provide feedback to all advisees on their performance and student fitness at the end of the first year following comprehensive exams.

Advisees will also have the opportunity to evaluate their academic advisor at the end of each semester via the divisional advising evaluation form.
