What is Advising

Advising is the active process between a student and advisor to continually work towards, create, and establish a successful academic career.  Advising is a process that develops over time and is never complete.  While advising meetings may initially be geared towards creating and finalizing academic schedules advising is also an experience full of many goals and outcomes.  Students are able to connect with another College member and gain skills and knowledge that are transferable to careers, campus involvement, personal growth, and more.  Advising is a process of growth and development and an integral part of a successful college experience.  

At BFIT our advising program offers student's support through assessment of strengths and challenges, review of academic progress, help with registration for future semesters, and suggestions for career preparation and success. Students having difficulty either personally or academically are encouraged to meet with their advisor to identify problem areas, clarify educational and personal goals, resolve difficulties and obtain referrals to other services.
