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.

 

Common services include:

  • Verify records for accuracy.
  • Assist with changing or declaring a major, minor, concentration, or degree level.
  • Help with course planning.
  • Confirm that electives chosen meet requirements.
  • Conduct Transfer Evaluations
  • Referral to other departments.
  • Assist in understanding University policy and help with compliance.
  • Prepare final “degree audit” prior to graduation.

How do you register for classes?

  • To meet graduation goals, it is a vital aspect of your program to plan out your academic schedule as far as you are able (through the last advertised Mod), and to register as soon as Mods are online and available for registration.
