It allows the establishment of closer contact between students and faculty members, it gives a student a better view of his career opportunities, and it helps him make better academic choices. The report shows that the non-centralized system of advisement has several drawbacks, which can be avoided by centralizing the system. Among the drawbacks, there are the lack of coordination between the different branches of the System and the lack of uniform policies at all the departments of the university, which creates uncertainty for students. Also, the non-centralized system does not allow conduction of the evaluation of all the advisors at the university and, on the basis of it, develop strategies for the development of the System of Academic Advisement. Registration Registration at AASU is well established.
Electronic registration helps to save university paper and personnel resources.
It also benefits the students because they are given more possibilities for registration. The division of students into priority groups and the division of registration into several stages have clear advantages. The experience of AASU in the field of registration could be a good example for Tartu University. Interview with the Director of the Office of Academic Orientation and Advisement, Mr. Greg Anderson.
