⭐ Liberal Arts and Sciences

Studying the liberal arts and sciences provides a breadth of knowledge that will prepare students to take advantage of any opportunity that presents itself in today’s global marketplace. Through the rigorous curriculum students will learn how to think critically and communicate effectively while developing the tools and skills that will serve them for a lifetime of significance.

⭐ Core Advising

All freshmen are assigned to a Core Advisor, who is committed to working individually with each student to encourage a successful transition from high school to college, and from freshman year to sophomore year. Students retain their advisor regardless of academic interest, and transition to a faculty advisor when declaring a major at the end of sophomore year.

All new transfer students are assigned the academic department chair or program director for their intended major.
