The Academic Advising Office

The mission of the Innovation Academy (IA) Academic Advising Office is to provide accessible, knowledgeable, and honest advising to all IA students. IA advisors can help you successfully transition to the university and guide you toward meeting your educational and career goals. They can talk with you about IA, the IA minor, your major, exploring other majors, campus resources, and career and personal goals.
