Academic Support & Student Services

Help with your studies, your wellbeing and your path through the University.

Planned services. DWIUST has not opened yet. These are the services planned for its first students, subject to NCHE approval of its licensure.

Support Close to Your Studies

Each school's Dean leads the support that depends on your subject.

Academic advising

Every student is assigned an academic advisor, who helps you choose courses, plan your degree and stay on track to graduate. Meeting your advisor before registration each semester is mandatory, and advisors help you make a recovery plan if your grades slip.

Orientation

New students attend Orientation Week (August 25–28, 2027) for the administrative, social and safety briefings, and an introduction to their program's curriculum and expectations from their school.

Career liaison

Each school will have a career liaison who connects students with internships and jobs in their field, alongside the central Career Services office.
