ADP Advising

Welcome to ADP Advising! Your Academic Advisors know one of your life goals is to graduate from Post University, and we are here to help as you journey from new student, to current student, to graduate!

The goal of the Academic Advising Program, which is an integral part of the University's academic support services, is to assist students in realizing their academic potential. Our Academic Advising staff provides friendly, proactive coaching so students stay on track to succeed, reach their academic goals, and graduate.

How Your Advisor Can Assist You

Academic Advisors assist their advisees in selecting majors, scheduling courses, and interpreting and fulfilling academic policies and procedures. Our students benefit from individual attention and interaction with their Academic Advisors. You are encouraged to contact your Advisor periodically to ensure you are on the right track. We recommend contacting us:

  • Once a year to send an Advisor your proposed academic schedule.
  • Periodically to check in to be sure the records of the University match your records.
  • Whenever you have a question, concern, or need assistance, do not hesitate to contact an Advisor.
