The Office of Student Services assists students in a variety of ways, such as advising, registration, and referrals to university services.

Questions about the curriculum, prerequisites, and course requirements should always be directed to an Academic Advisor in the College of Nursing. Academic support services such as tutoring, study groups, and workshops are coordinated by the college's Student Success and Retention Coordinator.
