Academic Advisors vs. Faculty Advisors

Understanding your advising team

Advisors work hand-in-hand to ensure the road on your academic journey is clear, east to navigate, and successful. At Cal State Fullerton, two types of advisors can help you on your journey toward graduation.

Academic advisors  have expertise in how to successfully fulfill major/minor and graduation requirements and navigate through the process of getting a degree, and they can clarify for you the steps necessary to prepare for a career and/or graduate study. They are also your partner in your personal and academic developments at CSUF.

Faculty advisors are experts in your major field and bring an in-depth understanding to addressing your questions and concerns. They know the wide variety of careers available to majors, what specific courses will be best for you, and how to most effectively chose and prepare for specific graduate programs and careers.
