Navigational Academic Advising
Navigational Academic Advisors respect and foster student success by providing support, connections and resources to all students (which includes transfer, returning, and adjusting students). We strive to mitigate barriers and collaborate with students to help them overcome challenges and achieve their educational goals.
ADVISING FOR ASSISTANCE WITH
Transferring

Thinking about coming back to Weber after a break?
Start with an academic transition advisor to review your academic history, get connected with your academic advisor* and make a plan to finish what you started.

We can guide you through the process of clarifying your skills, interests and abilities so you can select the major that will help you achieve your academic and career goals.
Identifying
Not sure where to go from here?
Academic transition advisors can help you clarify your goals and identify your next steps.
Navigating
Searching for resources on campus?
We can help you navigate the many programs and services available to you as a WSU student.
Connecting
Have questions but are not sure who to talk to?
Meeting with an academic transition advisor can be a great place to start. We may not be able to answer or resolve all your questions, but we can help connect you to the people who can.
*Navigational Academic Advisors can provide you with general information about WSU degrees but you’ll need to meet with your academic advisor to go over your specific degree requirements. Use Find My Advisor to find their contact information and schedule an appointment.
SCHEDULING AN APPOINTMENT WITH US
Appointments are available in person at WSU Ogden or virtually through Zoom.
