Academic Advising Center

The Academic Advising Center (AAC) assists undergraduate students in various ways. Most importantly, AAC provides academic advising to the students so that they have sufficient information to decide which courses they should take and which program of study they should choose to meet their academic interests and needs. Aside from academic advising, AAC assists students to process the self registration and processes the office registration as needed.
