Academic Advising
Advising
EOP students are assigned an EOP advisor as soon as they are admitted to the program, providing them with personalized support from start to finish. Advisors are available to assist with questions about majors and minors, offer guidance on specific courses, and provide information about graduate school opportunities. During their first two years at SSU, most students focus on completing lower-division major requirements and General Education courses. Students are encouraged to meet with their EOP advisor before registering for classes to ensure they stay on track with their academic goals.
EOP students can meet with their assigned EOP advisor for:
- General Advising
- Review of the Academic Requirements Report (ARR)
- Quick advising questions and referrals
- Directions to finding and reading your ARR
- Showing how to view your graduation requirements
- Information regarding General Education classes
- Clarification of university requirements and policies
- Review of your transfer credits
- Help with selecting/changing your major and minor
