Undergraduate Advisors

Students must seek advising from a student success advisor in the Center for Academic Advising & Retention (CAAR). Students will stay with their CAAR advisor until they are ready to transition to a faculty or departmental advisor. CAAR also provides advising for pre-nursing students; for more information, students may visit the Pre-Nursing Blog or email nursing@ewu.edu.

Department / Program Advisors

Students who have chosen or declared a major may be assigned an advisor from the department that offers the program. Typically this advisor is either a department staff or faculty member—someone who knows both the academic program and individual courses firsthand. This type of advisor is in the best position to give students advice on their choice of elective courses, senior projects, and how courses may be tied to specific careers within the discipline.

Undergraduate students who are ready to declare a major should contact their CAAR student success advisor for more information about completing the major declaration process. Graduate students should meet with the appropriate college advisor listed below.
