GENERAL ACADEMIC REGULATIONS AND INFORMATION
Academic Advising
The University of Georgia’s mandatory undergraduate academic advisement programs are an essential part of the undergraduate
educational experience which empower students to attain their academic goals. Faculty and professional academic advisors
of the University of Georgia will help undergraduate students understand the options and opportunities for academic programs
of study, degree requirements, and course selection. Academic advisors will engage students in meaningful relationships designed
to support and encourage a challenging and successful undergraduate education. Students will prepare for and participate fully
in their advising experience. Ultimately each undergraduate student is responsible for his/her academic progress at the University
of Georgia; advisors cannot provide a guarantee of graduation and/or certification within a specified period of time.
The Academic Advising Coordinating Council will provide leadership and support to faculty and professional academic
advisors through best practices in training, mentoring, research, and evaluation.
