Academic Advising & Transfer Services Mission

 

AATS logo


Mission Statement:

Academic advisors guide our diverse undergraduate population in developing and implementing sound educational plans consistent with our students’ stated values and academic and career goals. Academic advisors encourage students to become self-directed learners and decision-makers and to help facilitate their transition at each point in their undergraduate career. Finally, our efforts support the University of South Alabama’s broader mission, specifically by encouraging student persistence towards graduation.

 

Community Standards:          

Advisors foster an environment that is responsive to our diverse students’ cultures and experiences. We commit to recognizing our student’s individual differences and encourage our students to explore all options and opportunities provided at South. We encourage our students to make well-intentioned and strategic decisions that maximize their personal outcomes and successes.
