At BU, there are teams of people who support new students during their academic transition into the University. Your School\/College will assign you an academic advisor who will guide you through exploring your interests and choosing your courses. Students who start in the fall semester will also find support from your Assistant Director of First-Year Success or Transfer Student Success. During Orientation and throughout your time here, you\u2019ll have the chance to interact with faculty and staff who will encourage you to explore, engage, and experience what BU has to offer.<\/p>\n<p>Our <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/advising\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"target=\"_blank\">Advising website <\/a><\/strong>can help you explore the many academic opportunities available to you at BU.
