At the University of Pittsburgh, advising and mentoring are integral to the University’s educational mission. We advocate for collaborative and holistic advising interactions.
The shared model of advising incorporates faculty mentors, academic advisors, program advisors, and resources advisors to support the students in a holistic manner. The Student Success Team works with all advising roles to ensure a coordinated approach to student support.
This framework identifies essential elements needed for a collaborative and holistic advising experience and provides information for students as well as for advisors and administrators.

Identify advising contacts at each undergraduate college and school at the Pittsburgh campus, regional campuses, and additional advising support units.
Transfer students are an important part of the Pitt community, and advising is available to help support your transition.
