Advisement
New freshmen are advised by the staff of the Center for Academic Excellence when registering
for first semester courses, after which time they will be assigned faculty advisors. In most cases, Freshman
Seminar instructors become their students’ advisors. When a student declares a major, he or
she will be assigned an advisor in the appropriate academic department. The advisor’s role is to assist
the student in planning a suitable academic program and to maintain a record of progress during the
student’s college career. However, the final responsibility for meeting all academic program requirements
lies with the student. The Center for Academic Excellence also serves as a resource center for
students who may wish to seek additional academic help. In addition, faculty members may refer
students to the Center for Academic Excellence for academic counseling.(UNCP Academic Catalog, 2008-2009, p. 61).
The Department of Nursing takes the responsibility of advisement very
seriously as we believe advising students will lead to successful completion
of the requirement for the BSN. The department plans to open an Advisement
and Retention Office on the campus of Southeastern Regional Medical Center
(SRMC), where the pre-licensure program is based. The goal of this office
is to provide a support system specifically for pre-nursing students as
well as students enrolled in the nursing program.
