Academic Advising

Success Coaching and Academic Advising

Advising is the cornerstone of your education. Therefore, a faculty advisor is assigned to you after your initial advising appointment with a Student Success Coach or Outreach Center Advisor. Your faculty advisor will continue to assist you with your academic and career goals. 

You will also have the opportunity to work closely with Career and Transfer Success Coaches throughout your time at Western.

Transfer Services

Stop by Advising to receive assistance in pursuing a Bachelor's degree by starting at Western and then continuing to advance your education at another institution. Many universities provide opportunities to complete a Bachelor's in person or online. It is essential to start the transfer process the semester you enroll in your first course at Western to create a seamless transition to another institution after graduating from Western.
