A Faculty Who Is Committed to Your Success

A university degree is more than just 40 courses and 120 credit hours for most. Rather, your university journey is a personal and intellectual journey, and no two are alike. Assumption is committed to academic advising founded on a strong, individual relationship between advisor and advisee.

Year-by-Year

  • First year: Assumption matches each student with an advisor based on academic interests and goals. Those advisors aid in the transition to university-level academics, guide students to resources on campus, including the University’s online advising and registration system, WebAdvisor.
  • Second year: Advisors focus on supporting students as they choose among our 40 majors.
  • Junior year: In addition to course selection and career discussions, there are exciting opportunities such as study abroad or internships.
  • Senior year: Advisors support advisees as they apply to graduate school and post-baccalaureate scholarships, or move into the professional world.
