The Dos and Don’ts of Academic Advising for Student Success

Advisors play a key role in helping students succeed, but how much aid is too much?

Academic advisors have the important job of helping students acclimate to campus culture. In many ways, their guidance can play a large role in a student’s ability to navigate college life and maximize their education. But it’s easy to conflate institutional success with student success.
