Developmental advising is a critical component of the educational experience for all students. It encourages students to develop decision-making skills, to think critically about goals and objectives, and to assume responsibility for their actions and plans. NYIT offers a range of academic advising resources—including faculty advising, the Central Advising Center, online degree maps, and information found within the college catalogs—to assist students in making meaningful educational plans that are compatible with their career goals. The goals of the academic advising team include helping students:

• facilitate successful transition into NYIT
• develop suitable educational plans  
• clarify life and career goals
• select appropriate courses
• complete degree requirements in a timely manner
• interpret policies and procedures.
