Academic Advisement
Oklahoma City University provides guidance for admission, course selection, and instruction. Every student is assigned an academic advisor who counsels on academic matters. Academic advisors approach their counseling responsibilities in different ways. In general, they can answer questions about courses and majors. The student’s relationship with an academic advisor can provide unique opportunities that may enrich his or her academic experience. An advisor will not make decisions for the student but will offer support and encouragement. It is understood that the counselor works in an advisory capacity and is not responsible for the failure of the student to follow the requirements for graduation set forth in the catalog. The provost is the ultimate authority on interpretation of requirements for graduation.
