Academic Advising Fall 2026

CEA academic advisors are here to guide and support every CEA student.

Temporary Advising Model for Fall 2026:

Primary Advising Support

Your first point of contact for academic advising. Contact your primary academic advisor(s) for questions about course selection, degree requirements, academic planning, registration, and general academic support.

Secondary Advising Support

Contact if your primary advisor is unavailable or if you need specialized guidance. Secondary advisors can assist with academic policies, transfer credits, program-specific requirements, and questions that require additional review or expertise.
