Students must seek advisement prior to beginning their respective programs in Pacific Islands Studies, and throughout the course of their studies. Advisers assist with planning course schedules, ensuring all program requirements are met, and any other needs students may have specific to succeeding in their chosen degree programs. We encourage students to seek advisement early on, and to stay in close contact with their advisers each semester as they progress through their studies.
