Academic advising is an interactive process in which the advisor helps the student set and achieve academic goals and make responsible decisions. Academic advisors offer one-on-one support in areas such as course selection, choice of major, college transition issues, careers or graduate study, and referral to other support services. Academic advising at Taylor is offered in a two-tiered approach: students are assigned a major advisor from their department as well as a general advisor who provides assistance with Foundational Core requirements.
