Departmental Advising

All new students to Cameron University start with an advisor in the Academic Advising Center.  The professional staff in the Academic Advising Center work with concurrently enrolled high school students throughout their concurrent experience, as well as students new to Cameron University.  Once a student has done their first full enrollment in the Advising Center (Not as a concurrent student), the student will be transferred to either the academic department associated with their declared major, or in the case of undeclared students, the Student Enrichment Center to work with an Academic Success Coach.

Departmental Advisors are instructors that teach in the students Academic Department.  For example, if a student is an Accounting major, they will be assigned a Departmental Advisor who is an instructor in the Business Department.  Departmental Advisors can offer insight into fine tuning students' professional/career goals and how to best align major courses to fit those goals.  After meeting with a Departmental Advisor, students will be given a PIN number that they can use to enroll themselves for the upcoming semester.  Students should meet with their departmental advisor each semester to review course selection and get a new PIN.
