About Academic Advising
What is academic advising?
Professional Academic Advising is a collaborative and holistic process designed to facilitate students’ understanding of the meaning and purpose of higher education and to foster students’ intellectual and personal development toward academic success and lifelong learning.
Successful academic advising is a shared responsibility between an advisor and a student. It requires active participation from both parties. It is ultimately the student’s responsibility to make decisions about their life goals by creating a plan to reach those goals. The advisor serves as a facilitator of communication and a coordinator of learning experiences through course and career planning and academic progress reviews.
Academic advisors are committed to provided students with high-quality assistance in order to support them in the development and pursuit of academic objectives consistent with their life goals and available opportunities at UCA’s campus. [Read more…]

Life Before and After Nursing
Online Nursing Workshop
Welcome! If you are a pre-nursing, or nursing student, and would like to know of other nursing program options or other majors, this is the workshop for you. This workshop provides you with information to prepare you as you pursue a career in nursing. But if you need to transition to another degree program, then there is information for you as well. You can still meet with me one on one, but there is information you will need to bring with you to an advising session covered in this workshop. One recent change to the video regards Slide 5.
The reference website to visit for Arkansas Nursing Programs is http://www.registerednursing.org/state/arkansas/.
For further advising, please email Pearlie Williams at pwilliams@uca.edu.
