Student Feedback
Advising at the UW not only helped me sort out my class schedule for the next quarter, but helped me solidify what exactly I wanted to do throughout my time at the UW, including club activities and studying abroad. When I applied for my major, my adviser helped to calm me down and form my personal statement and really figure out what my educational goals were and the reasons behind them.

Undergraduate academic advising at the University of Washington is a core element of the University's focus on student learning.

As educators, advisers partner with faculty and the campus community to cultivate our students' intellectual development.

As guides and advocates, advisers collaborate with students to craft a transformative educational experience so that they may become informed, articulate and thoughtful students of the University and citizens of the world.
