• Every La Salle student is assigned an advisor who provides academic information and advice. Academic advisors help students work out programs of study and select courses, and they provide information about registration, electives, schedule revision, changing majors, and graduation requirements. Prior to registration, students are required to meet with their advisors. It is the student’s responsibility to learn what his or her options are and to develop and follow a plan of study that will satisfy the requirements of the degree he or she is seeking. Students are encouraged to ask questions and to make use of their academic advisors, and the many other resources on campus.
• If a student is not sure who there advisor is, they should stop by the Dean’s Office of the school which they are enrolled (e.g. a marketing major would go to the School of Business Dean’s Office, etc.).
• The best way for a student to contact their professor in most cases is by sending an email to the professor. Students can access the faculty and staff directory through the MyLasalle Portal if they are unsure of their professor’s email address. In addition, they should look at their course syllabi for professors often list their preferred phone numbers along with their office locations for a student to stop by during their office hours.

The first thing a student should do is to schedule an appointment during their professor’s office hours after class to see if the professor can provide extra support and answer any questions.

o Formally-trained La Salle students provide Subject Tutoring in nearly 100 undergraduate courses. The Center also provides group tutoring via Supplemental Instruction (SI) and Facilitated Study Groups for certain courses. Many students find SI particularly helpful as the tutors attend class, better allowing them to help students.
o Friendly and formally-trained tutors provide information about the writing process and documentation styles, as well as assistance with idea development, organization, and issues of tone and voice. Regardless of one’s writing ability, an appointment with a writing tutor can help all writers. Individual writing support is available for all students, all years, all courses, and at all stages of the writing process.
o Academic Coaching helps students become better organized, manage time more effectively, strengthen reading comprehension, study more strategically, and improve metacognition. Individual appointments (face-to-face and distance) and small-group workshops (live and online) are available to help students develop effective learning strategies and understand how to become a more successful student.
