Advisors
The academic advisors talk about how best to take advantage of the undergraduate program.
Undergraduate Advising
Before applying to the program, you can meet with Ann Wright, admission advisor, to learn more about the program, have your credits from previous colleges evaluated, and receive advice about selecting the first 3 courses required for admission.
Once admitted, you are assigned to 1 of the following advisors who can assist you with course selection, curriculum choices, and academic and career plans, including career transitioning, graduate school, study abroad, and teacher licensure. Your advisor can schedule in-person, telephone, or video chat appointments, as well as answer your questions via e-mail.

Our undergraduate degree candidates are talented, motivated, and intellectually curious adults who are a pleasure to advise. They want the best, and, indeed, deserve the best that higher education has to offer.
Suzanne also advises pre-law and pre-MBA students, as well as students preparing for PhD work and application to graduate fellowships.

One of the greatest privileges of my work as an academic advisor is to truly get to know my students over an extended period of time. Undergraduate degree candidates never cease to amaze me with their incredible life experiences and the energy and passion they bring to their academic studies.
Mark is also a teacher recertification advisor, and advises students on psychology-related graduate schools and careers.
