Academic Support for Student-Athletes
The mission of Student-Athlete Services is to create an environment
that will allow student-athletes the opportunity to maximize their
academic, personal and social growth. We recognize that every student-athlete
has goals that are fulfilled by both athletic and academic success,
and that there must be a balance between these two pursuits. SAS
provides the following academic support services:
Academic Advising
Each student-athlete is assigned an SAS advisor in addition to a
faculty advisor. Student-athletes receive supplemental advising
on both general education and major requirements. Advisors also
help schedule courses and inform student-athletes of NCAA eligibility
requirements. Students may make an appointment or drop by.
Academic Monitoring
The Office of Student-Athlete Services also takes on the role of
tracking academic progress. SAS staff members are in contact with
instructors through progress reports, phone calls and email throughout
the semester. This information is used to identify problem areas
and make recommendations for improvement.
Consultation
SAS staff members act as liaisons to the rest of the University
community and are trained to provide the appropriate referrals to
other campus resources and departments.
