Advisors with questions for first-year students enrolling for fall 2024 are encouraged to complete this form for fast follow-up.
How will you know if students are interested in leadership studies or Honors? Students who are interested in leadership studies or University Honors Program will indicate so on their NSO enrollment form via these questions, which will be available to advisors before their virtual enrollment appointment:
Advising Community Workshop
11:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 20
All K-State campus advisors are invited to the Spring 2024 Advising Community Workshop.
This workshop, led by Andrew Wefald, Ph.D., ACC, will focus on building community as professionals to develop a sense of belonging. Lunch will be provided.
We hope we can take a moment before new student enrollment to connect with our campus community and center ourselves in our advising, coaching, and compassion with one another. Participants will leave having built community with peers on campus and with tools to use to deepen their discussions with students in the advising process. Following the workshop, we will provide lunch over a 'Cats Connect activity.
For questions, email Colleen Helmers at colleenhelmers@ksu.edu.
