The Central Advising Center at NYIT develops, promotes, and supports effective academic advising programs. NYIT students receive their primary advising from assigned faculty within their academic departments. The Central Advising Center supplements departmental academic advising initiatives.

With the assistance of information technology and videoconferencing, based on sound advising and teaching skills, the center provides timely and accurate information about NYIT academic requirements, policies, procedures, and resources. The center also provides students assistance with the inter-school transfer process and general advising.

What can the Central Advising Center do for you?

• We answer your questions if you’re thinking of changing your major.
