Abstract:

The Grass is Greener Where you Water It: Effective Transitioning from First-Year/Undeclared Advising
The transition from being a first-year, Undeclared student to Declared can be a difficult process involving challenging paperwork, new advisor(s) and a fear of what's next. Instead of leaving our students to navigate the process on their own, our university academic advising program shifted the way we deliver services to our first-year students by creating a transition effort focused on ensuring our students are informed, as well as seamlessly connected to their major advisor and department, maintaining consistent communication throughout their academic career. This presentation will explain the development of our major declaration transition process, the execution of the process, and the advantages for both advisors and students. This presentation is appropriate for advisors and administrators of first-year advising programs. |
