Ashland University uses a collaborative advising model that includes both faculty and professional advising. Professional Academic Advising will focus on providing students with a strong foundation for success at Ashland University, while the faculty advisors will focus on the details and issues inherent to their individual majors. We provide resources to students that focus on their individual needs, with an emphasis on social, personal and academic success.
Students are strongly encouraged to develop an early and ongoing relationship with both their Professional Academic Advisor and Faculty Advisor. This will enable them to learn curriculum requirements, better understand course demands, adhere to academic policies and deadlines, and to engage in thoughtful exploration and preparation of potential career and graduate school opportunities.
Professional Academic Advising Mission Statement
