I really enjoyed the opportunity to talk to an adviser one-on-one about my thoughts concerning my academic plans. It was nice to talk to a person well informed and with a lot of experience with academics at UW. It is easy to get overwhelmed, so it was nice to have a second opinion from someone who had the resources to point me in the right direction. It was also nice to have someone I could get to know and who could get to know me. My adviser helped me look at my learning experience in a new light, and helped me think through my options. This is definitely a resource to take advantage of!
