The academic advisor assists students from admission to the University through graduation. The student works with the advisor to develop academic plans, select courses, discuss issues or concerns regarding academic progress, withdrawal, reinstatement, bankruptcy, appeals, and scholarship information.

The services offered by academic advising on behalf of the School of Nursing directly enhance student recruitment efforts and retention of Indiana University Southeast nursing students.

The mission of academic advising is to be proactive in helping students approach their education in an organized and meaningful way, as well as being responsive to student needs within a diverse environment. In order to achieve this mission academic advising provides a continuum of services which:

  1. Provide a centralized source of accurate and up-to-date information for academic and career planning.
  2. Facilitate clarification of policies and procedures.
  3. Assist students to identify and understand program options.
  4. Assist students in analyzing and evaluating academic choices.
  5. Make referrals to other Indiana University Southeast student service departments; faculty advisers, the Academic Success Center and personal counseling services as needed.

The advising process promotes student growth and independence throughout the university experience.
