The Role Of The Student in Academic Advising:
Female students have an essential role in the academic guidance process. They are responsible for monitoring academic progress and seeking advice and guidance from academic advisors. The student prepares for the academic advising process by following the following steps:
1- Before meeting with the academic advisor:
- Knowing the office hours of the academic advisor.
- Schedule an appointment with the academic advisor at the beginning of the semester (preferably at least once a month).
- Preparing the questions and concerns that concern the student to be presented in the academic interview.
- Review the study plan carefully, which explains to the student all the requirements that the department, college, and university need.
- Searching for the correct information and data related to what the student needs before meeting her academic advisor.
2- During the academic advisor interview:
- Clarifying the student's professional and academic goals and discussing them transparently with the academic advisor.
- Set a date for graduation and consult the advisor.
- Work with the academic advisor to develop a study program with an executive study schedule for what the student plans to study for the next two semesters.
- Ask all the questions that concern the student's interest to her academic advisor, as she can help the student when having a clear perception of what is on the student's mind.
3. Follow-up interviews:
- Follow the recommendations of the academic advisor.
- Communicate with the advisor and send an email with any additional questions or inquiries.
- Review graduation requirements and ensure that it is correctly understood.
- Inform the academic advisor about undertaking any academic process (deletion, addition, apology, postponement).
