Academic Advisement

Traditional Undergraduate Program

At every stage in their academic careers, Albertus students benefit from experienced guidance in planning a course of study. Entering first-year and transfer students are assigned a professional advisor.

First-year students can declare their major after the add/drop period of their first semester. Students who are undecided may remain undecided until the first semester of their sophomore year. Once students formally declare a major, they will be assigned a faculty mentor within their chosen area of study.

While students are required to see their academic advisor prior to registration each semester, they are also encouraged to seek advice whenever any questions or concerns may arise. Students may schedule an appointment with one of their advisors via Navigate.

Professional and Graduate Studies

Accelerated Degree Program

New students in the Accelerated Degree Program meet with their academic advisor prior to beginning a degree program. Academic advisors assist students in assessing their educational and professional goals, selecting classes, and planning a program of study.

Students are assigned a departmental faculty advisor after they have earned 36 credits and declared their major. Academic Advisors work closely with the faculty advisor and continue to be an integral part of the students overall experience.

Graduate Programs

Academic advisement in the program is accomplished by appointment with the program director, who assists individual students with course planning, registration, and regular academic reviews.

A faculty advisor is assigned to each student to assist in the planning of the student's individual course of study. The advisor assists the student in selecting courses during the registration time period for each semester. The academic advisor is available to meet with the student by appointment throughout the semester.
