Administrative Team
What to expect from Eller Academic Advising
Eller Undergraduate Programs aims to provide quality academic advising to all students, with the goal of supporting them toward achieving their academic goals. Every Eller student is assigned an Academic Advisor, but the entire advising team is cross-trained to support all Eller students. Students are encouraged to proactively meet with their Academic Advisor throughout the academic year to ensure that they are on track toward completing all requirements.
Advising appointments are posted weekly, around 9:00 am MST on Wednesdays. Although advising appointments tend to fill during peak times throughout the academic year, we offer Drop-In Advising Mondays-Friday to ensure students receive timely answers to their advising questions. We endeavor to respond to emails in a timely fashion, but students may experience delays during peak times.
Student Expectations
- Students are expected to be actively engaged in their academic experience. This includes engaging in their coursework, actively participating in advising appointments, and staying aware of academic dates and deadlines.
- Students are expected to schedule academic advising appointments, join Drop-In Advising, or email questions to their Academic Advisor.
- Students are expected to read all university emails sent to their CatMail account, which often include reminders sent by their Academic Advisor.
- Students are expected to demonstrate respectful behavior and communication in accordance with the University Code of Conduct.
Advisor Expectations
- Advisors are expected to provide academic advising services to students during business hours in a variety of modalities (in-person, Zoom, phone, and email).
- Advisors are expected to answer academic questions related to Eller requirements, General Education courses, and other academic options (including dual degrees, minors, and certificates), and ask probing questions.
- Advisors are expected to integrate career exploration and preparedness into advising conversations.
- Advisors are expected to guide students to a variety of resources available in the Eller College, the University of Arizona, and the surrounding community.
- Advisors are expected to treat each student with dignity and respect in their endeavors to create a sense of belongingness in the Eller College.
