Student Services Wing 110777-6305 Professional advisers, specially trained peer advisers and secretarial staff aid students in making curriculum decisions. Office staff interprets and implements academic policies and regulations. They discuss with students such issues as academic program planning, creation of individual majors, student record problems, withdrawals, career planning, and exceptions to policies and procedures.
Harpur students consult with advisers throughout their academic career.
Students are also assigned departmental advisers after they officially declare a major in the Academic Advising Office. The coordinator of student services is the faculty member who advises Decker freshman and sophomore students. In addition, second-semester sophomore students are assigned another faculty adviser to help them plan their coursework in the nursing curriculum. Students may contact the student services office whenever they have questions regarding specific requirements or aspects of the program. Decker students are encouraged to purchase the undergraduate or graduate edition of Decker School of Nursing Handbook.
