Academic Advising

Simmons academic advisors assist students with course selections, petitions, appropriate Education Abroad experiences, and additional majors and/or minors. Advisors also identify students who are struggling academically and assist them with appropriate resources.

The advising staff helps students examine and set goals in order to have a successful undergraduate experience.

Following are important reminders about advising and records:

• Meet with your assigned advisor at least once each semester prior to enrollment for the next term to plan courses for the upcoming semester.
• Enroll in the courses discussed with your advisor.
• Make schedule changes by the add/drop deadline (see academic calendar).
• Drop courses or withdraw for a semester by the deadline/s published on the academic calendar if necessary.
• You are responsible for your enrollment.

Check your DPR at least once a semester to insure the following are correct:

• Major and sub-plan, if applicable,
• Additional majors and minors,
• CC requirements,
• All credit (test, transfer and °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÔ¤²â credit), and
• Graduation term.
