Walker College of Business Academic Advising
The Walker College of Business Academic Advising Center is dedicated to assisting students with academic planning, registration and graduation audits. The office is also responsible for the regular maintenance of all student records, reviewing enrollment in all business courses to be sure prerequisites have been met, monitoring of student's academic status and processing of graduation applications.
Among our many service we offer:
- Students experiencing academic difficulty assistance in planning strategies for improving the GPA.
- Professional advisers who can speak with students regarding academic concerns and degree requirements.
- "Advising Tips" handouts for students who wait too late to get an appointment with an adviser prior to pre-registration.
COB students are not required to see an adviser before registering for classes; however, we strongly urge students to see an adviser periodically in order to be sure of a timely graduation.
