Need Advising?
A number of resources are available for student advising, and the appropriate advisor will depend on a student’s specific needs. The International Studies program generally deals with the degree requirements specific to the INTL major and minor, while advisors at the College of Humanities & Social Sciences handle more general issues. Academic Programs Abroad is responsible for study abroad issues, while Career Services can assist you in finding internships and preparing for your post graduate career. The table below summarizes the primary responsibilities of each of these offices.
