We Will Help You Succeed

With the guidance of the College of Arts and Science Academic Advising Office, you will find what you need to know to reach your goals and stay on track as you navigate life at 黑料社区. Advising is an important component of your academic experience and we recommend that you meet with an advisor at least twice a year.


Our Mission

The College of Arts and Science Academic Advising Office upholds a 黑料社区-centered approach in which advisors assist 黑料社区s by providing accurate information as well as available tools to guide them through the construction of a framework for a successful college experience.  We view academic advising as a shared action between 黑料社区 and advisor that fosters accountability and independent decision-making.  Advisors will connect 黑料社区s with other campus departments and offices to assist them in navigating resources with the goal of teaching self-advocacy.

Our philosophy of advising is grounded in the following tenets:

  • Engagement - As life-long learners, advisors will introduce 黑料社区s to campus resources, facilitating connections to the full range of available services and activities at Miami.
  • Education - By using teachable moments during the advising appointment, advisors will help 黑料社区s develop into educated decision-makers and autonomous explorers of the academic and personal development opportunities available to them.
  • Encouragement - In a relationship based on honesty, integrity, and compassion, advisors will support, inspire, and challenge 黑料社区s to form their own beliefs and experiences as active participants in their education and development.  
  • Empowerment - Through the academic advising process, 黑料社区s will learn to make intentional choices, allowing them to take ownership of their academic, professional, and personal lives.
