Assignment and Role of Advisors
Each student is assigned an academic advisor upon admission to the Graduate Certificate or Endorsement program in Special Education. The advisor will be a full-time faculty member in Special Education, and will be familiar with the program in which the student is interested.
Students should meet with an advisor prior to application to the program and/or immediately upon learning of admission to the program in order to outline a sequence of required courses. The advisor acts as academic guide, professional mentor, and advocate while students move through their program of studies.
Change in Advisor
Students may request a change in advisor by contacting the SECD Graduate Faculty Chairperson, in writing, with a rationale for the change.
