Advising Statement of Purpose:
We, the SGA Committee on Academic Advising, have supplemented each school within the institute with tools to provide effective information to all students. Advisors will not prescribe answers, but advisors will supply you with boundless knowledge so that you may make an informed decision. We believe academic advising is a collaborative process, and ultimately, you, the student, are responsible for your educational experience.
