The Academic Advisor supports undergraduate students with all aspects of academic planning by promoting and encouraging self-authorship and resource utilization in support of academic success, as well as timely and informed pursuit of an academic major. This is accomplished through a one-on-one student-centered, individualized, technology-enhanced advising appointments and the establishment of a relationship based on mutual trust with a diverse student population.

  • Able to establish and maintain effective relationships with administrators, faculty, staff, students, and parents
  • Exhibit initiative and tolerance for ambiguity in an ever-changing environment
  • Affirm and contribute to a positive workplace culture

This is an in-person position. May be required to work outside the College's normal operating hours (8:30am-5:00pm, Monday through Friday) during New Student Orientation and other special events. May be required to offer individual or group appointments virtually. Opportunity for a flexible in-person work schedule after the first 12 months of employment and a successful rating on performance review. Physical demands include sitting, walking within the office and around campus; navigating to, from and between buildings, classroom environments and stairways, particularly during New Student Orientation.
