Mission

The Exploratory and Pre-Professional Advising Center provides advising services for all students who have not decided upon a major as well as students in Pre-Professional programs. The Center promotes the holistic growth of students, respectful of their individual goals. The comprehensive program works collaboratively with the University community in support of students' academic success. Exploratory and Pre-Professional Advising also provides essential academic information, and interprets academic policy for new freshmen, new transfers, and current students. Advising responsibilities include assisting students with transitional issues, curriculum planning, placement, registration, referrals, and implementing programs and activities to enhance retention.

The academic advising process is considered a very important aspect of a student's educational experience at UNL.

The goals of the advising process are:

•  To assist students in their understanding of academic requirements

•  To nurture intellectual maturation and self-confidence

•  To encourage students to take an active role in the advisement process

•  To foster a positive working relationship between students, advisers, and faculty.
